Changes
Changes in Truckroute
Per day what changed and was added in the app, in CarPlay, in the route planner and on the website, in one sentence per change. The newest is at the top.
Latest version of the app
- Android: version 1.0.3 (vc144)
- iPhone and CarPlay: version 1.0.3 (98)
Tuesday 10-11-2026
- In the settings you can now choose how far ahead the timeline looks (25 to 300 km, 150 km by default) and how large it is (small, normal, large or extra large), on the phone and separately for CarPlay and Android Auto; on the car screen from the next version.
- With dangerous goods (ADR) only the tunnel itself is now off limits, no longer the exits and roads before it, such as the Hoogvliet/Pernis exit near the Benelux tunnel. The route now takes the shortest way there and is calculated faster.
- On the Zuiderparkweg and the Strevelsweg along Ahoy in Rotterdam there were 15 width signs of 2.2 and 2.3 m that are not actually there; they are gone from the map and trucks now simply use the main road there again.
- A German traffic jam report that has not been updated for hours no longer counts towards the route and the arrival time.
- When a traffic jam on a German Autobahn grows, the delay is now spread over the whole jam instead of piling up on its first part; this sometimes made the arrival time half an hour too late.
- The route now only reports a destination as unreachable when there really is a sign or restriction on the road, with its location; a message without a reason or location, such as on the Kapelweg in Giethoorn, no longer appears.
- Where a road splits around a traffic island and you turn straight away, the arrow now points the way you actually drive: at Spier on De Steegde onto the N855 that is a left turn instead of keep right, also in the spoken instruction.
- New version of the app at 18:30: Android 1.0.3 (vc144), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (98)
- In Android Auto the triangle showing your position is now aligned with the road, also on the tilted 3D map; before, it leaned left or right depending on the direction of travel.
- The phone voice now pronounces the A1, E1 and N1 correctly in Dutch.
- If you open the app again after driving with it in the background and plan a route straight away, the route now starts at where you are now instead of where you last had the app open.
- If a German permit names a sign for the escort at a bridge or other structure (such as the no-overtaking sign, Zeichen 277), that sign now also appears as a sign in the Beifahrer message and in the timeline, next to the sign of the structure, on the phone, tablet and CarPlay; in Android Auto it is in the text.
- Search now also finds a street when you write out or shorten a title: "Burgemeester" finds "Burg.", and likewise Meester and Mr., Sint and St., Dokter and Dr., Professor and Prof. and Wethouder and Weth.
- The text in the green block in CarPlay and Android Auto has an extra setting Extra small: text and arrows half the size of Small and the block half as wide, so you see more of the map on a small car screen. The hectometre sign at the top right is now about the size of a speed sign.
- With asphalt and road markings switched off, the map now also draws an overpass you drive under in the normal road colour, without dark asphalt and markings, on the phone, CarPlay and Android Auto.
- Truckroute now only works from version 1.0.3 (vc143 on Android, 97 on the iPhone); an older version asks you to update via the download folder or TestFlight.
- If a German permit names a street without house numbers between two roads, such as a bypass, the route now drives along that street instead of taking a detour over the roads around it.
- The app asks once whether you agree to the terms of use (and again when they change). When you start a trip with an exemption or permit, you confirm that you have read the original with all its conditions and have it with you.
- The Menu now has the full Truckroute terms of use under Disclaimer, in Dutch, English and German.
- New version of the app at 13:31: Android 1.0.3 (vc143), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (97)
- On Android Auto, the block at the bottom with the road you are driving on is no longer occasionally see-through, and neither are the lane indicator and the compass (from the next Android version).
- On the website, the map now shows in light, normal colours by default; choose the dark map at the top right under the map layers. Under Permits you can also remove the toll roads of all countries from the map.
- On the website, the spots of a Dutch exemption that come with a passage drawing are now marked on the map with the figure number; click one to see the drawing at a readable size with its explanation.
- On the website, a loaded permit now shows its conditions, structures, roadworks, requirements and warnings on the map, each as its own layer you can switch on and off; click a point for all details, such as height and width.
- If your account has no access to the route planner, the login page now shows this clearly, with the e-mail address and phone number to get in touch.
- Even when there is no route through the ban, and also while navigating, the message No route in your direction of travel now says why: which sign or limit stops you, or that the road is a dead end according to the map.
- No more No route in your direction of travel message when you set off from a site or car park next to the road.
- When you drive with a permit, the overpasses, tunnels and bridges from the permit now also appear in the timeline on your phone, CarPlay and Android Auto, with the clearance or load capacity on the sign; turn it off with the Permit structures tick box.
- A Dutch exemption route now keeps you on the main carriageway where the exemption prescribes it, and no longer sends you over a parallel carriageway, connecting road or a side road next to the carriageway there, as at the Zaarderheiken interchange on the A73 and on the N273 at Napoleonsweg.
- If a Dutch exemption says "see figure" at a structure, the app now shows that passing drawing itself: in the block while driving, in the conditions, in the route description and on the map, and on CarPlay and Android Auto on the right of the screen while you approach the structure.
- In Flanders, 117 more motorhome sites and campsites with motorhome pitches now appear on the map with the motorhome profile, with the number of pitches.
- If the route cannot continue in your direction of travel because of a ban, the message now names the sign and where it is, and you can choose Continue anyway if the exception on the sign applies to you or you have an exemption.
- With a motorhome as your vehicle, motorhome sites and service points now appear on the map and along your route, in 13 countries, with water, electricity, waste disposal, the number of pitches and the price where known, and navigation there; also on the website under Map layers.
- On an older phone with little memory, the app warns at first start that it is better not to use 3D and Aerial photo, because the app may otherwise close.
- A stop you add by pressing and holding on the map is placed where it adds the least detour to your trip, also while navigating; before, it always became the last or the next stop.
- The delay at the bottom of the screen now also counts a traffic jam that formed after your route was calculated, so the number matches the jams on your route (from the next version of the app).
- At first start the app now also asks whether you want to hover above the map or look in 3D from behind, which default zoom you want on the phone and in the car, whether you want to see the blue sign in the car all the time or only just before the exit, and how large the letters in the green panel in the car are, each with an example.
- Warnings for speed cameras and arrow trucks can now be switched off, separately, in Menu, Navigation and as a question at first start; the speed cameras then stay on the map.
- At an exit the route line moves onto the exit lane as soon as it begins and follows that lane onto the slip road, instead of cutting across the gore area at the last moment.
- The percentage while a route is being calculated now keeps pace with the actual calculation time and no longer sits at 95% for a long time; the app learns how long a calculation takes on your phone.
- CarPlay: when your vehicle stops at a traffic light, the vehicle on the map no longer keeps moving, also when the car itself provides the position.
- Search: while the app is still searching it shows Searching... instead of Nothing found, and in CarPlay, Android Auto and Plan trip you can now also find a company far away abroad.
- Viaducts and railway bridges above a city road now appear on the map in their real shape, also on CarPlay and Android Auto; where that is not yet possible, there is one even strip per viaduct instead of a stack of loose strips in different directions.
- On an on-ramp, off-ramp or motorway link the route line always stays in the right lane; only on the motorway itself does the line follow the lane you are driving in (from the next version of the app).
- Traffic jams count in your route and travel time again: since the evening of 9 November the app calculated for a while without current traffic jams.
- In CarPlay and Android Auto the hectometre marker now sits at the far top right, next to the speed limit; the signs and the timeline move to its left (from the next version of the app).
- Company search: if nothing is found nearby, the app now searches all of Europe, also far away abroad, and a terminal the map only knew by an abbreviation can also be found by its full name, such as the European Bulk Handling Installation in Gijón.
- Timeline: a road with the same clearance height over a long distance now shows that height only once, instead of a height sign every few hundred metres; a tunnel is always listed separately.
- On a new installation the app asks a few questions once, with examples: dark or light map, map type, 3D, asphalt and markings, the timeline on the phone and in the car, the voice, overhead signs, the navigation symbol, the green panel only from 5 km and the lane indication. In the menu, Reset to factory settings puts everything back and asks the questions again; the lane indication can also be switched off there.
- New version of the app at 00:37: iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (96)
- On the website you can now do everything the app can, except navigating: load permits as a PDF or number and plan the permitted route, roadworks now and on a chosen day, places such as parking and fuel, favourites with import, driving bans per country and planning a trip by arrival time.
- Fewer app shutdowns on a warm iPhone: the map on the phone rests as soon as you switch to another screen or app, and draws more calmly while the phone is warm.
- Routes are now calculated without tolls and truck charge by default, so they come faster. In the route overview, tap Calculate next to Tolls and truck charge for the amounts of the routes shown, without changing the route. To always calculate with tolls, switch on Calculate tolls and truck charge under Menu, Route.
Monday 09-11-2026
- Arrow trucks, advance warnings and crash cushions along your route are up to date again: since 29 October the app showed an old list.
- If your destination lies behind a road your vehicle may not or cannot use, for example because of a weight limit, the route now arrives about twice as fast.
- Roadworks: for major Rijkswaterstaat projects the expected extra travel time is now shown, and on the map the project name with a More info button to the project page.
- New version of the app at 21:18: Android 1.0.3 (vc142), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (95)
- Routes are calculated faster, especially long trips and trips with many restrictions for your vehicle, also in the evening.
- Map layers ADR: every tunnel shows a badge with its tunnel code, also when zoomed far out, and tapping the tunnel shows its name.
- Exceptional transport: the Permit button is below the address field, in place of Fixed routes.
- Plan a trip: tap Start on a saved trip to begin navigation straight away, from your current position via the stops to the destination.
- Driving with a German permit: the red message about the permitted driving time has a close button. Once closed it stays away, also in CarPlay and on the car screen, until you start navigation again or drive another permit.
- The app opens straight onto the map, even when the internet connection is just coming back; before, the start screen could then stay up for a while.
- Plan a trip: a trip can be saved with its own name and then appears at the top to pick again quickly; renaming and deleting are possible too.
- Exemption or permit: the roadworks on the route can be viewed per day (today, tomorrow or a day in the calendar), with the times of that day.
- If the lane at roadworks on the route is narrower than the width in your permit, a red warning appears in the route details and with the roadworks of the permit.
- The map now shows the weight limits, no-entry restrictions and other restrictions that apply to your vehicle when zoomed out to an overview of the area, also in the route overview, so you can see why a route avoids a road; also in Germany and the other countries.
- iPhone with CarPlay: the navigation bar on the lock screen now stays when CarPlay is connected, with the next turn and the hectometre marker.
- If a recalculation gets stuck on the way, the app goes back to checking for traffic jams and faster routes after a minute; before, that stopped for the rest of the trip.
- The hectometre marker now also appears in CarPlay and Android Auto, right next to the green direction block, on your iPhone lock screen and in the navigation notification on Android.
- The road number at the bottom ('You are now on') no longer stays on the previous road when the app runs in the background, as with Android Auto; after a change of road it shows the new road.
- Address search now also finds streets without house numbers whose name starts like a nearby street, such as Oosterparkweg Noord in Heerhugowaard next to Oosterweg Noord. More than 4,200 such streets have been added, and the iPhone now actually fetches an updated address list.
- CarPlay: when you are in another app, such as music, the next turn now appears only once as a banner at the bottom and then disappears; the same turn no longer keeps coming back.
- CarPlay and Android Auto: tap Routes while driving and you immediately see that other routes are being calculated, until the list appears. Tapping again while it calculates no longer slows it down.
- Driving with a German permit: tap the sign of an Auflage in the timeline and the details now open in full, with the height to lower to and the structure, speed and instructions each on their own line, just like roadworks.
- New version of the app at 09:05: Android 1.0.3 (vc141)
- Android Auto: the timeline and the signs at the top right (speed, speed limit, signs) are larger and scale with the car screen, like in CarPlay.
- New version of the app at 08:13: Android 1.0.3 (vc139)
- Android Auto: the app no longer closes when it navigates in the background.
- Android Auto: the settings have their own Android Auto page with the timeline and the frames per second; the timeline is on by default.
- Android Auto: the map draws at most 30 frames per second, like CarPlay; this saves battery and keeps the phone cooler.
- Android Auto: the position icon you choose (photo, vehicle or arrow) appears on the car screen straight away.
- Without a route your speed is always shown, in the app, CarPlay and Android Auto, also on a road whose signs are not known yet.
- Android Auto: road number shields on the map, travel time and distance always visible in the route preview, and the total cost for each route (toll, driving time and fuel), on which Cheapest is based; also in CarPlay.
- German permit: the route follows the permitted road more closely, also when the start address is a road number or a motorway runs next to another one, and "not certain on the itinerary" now only appears where that is really the case. In the route overview you see for each road where it is, which road the route takes there and, with On the map, the stretch from the permit in orange.
- Exceptional transport on the Belgian 90 t or 120 t network in Wallonia now also continues on the N4 near Walhain, the N5 near Frasnes-lez-Gosselies and the N63 near Levooz; there was a break in the network there, so the route made a detour.
- Exceptional transport: on roads with separate carriageways, such as the N9 near Sint Maartensvlotbrug, the route can now go both ways. On more than 5,700 short carriageways in the Netherlands an exceptional transport could previously only go one way.
Sunday 08-11-2026
- New version of the app at 23:50: Android 1.0.3 (vc138), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (94)
- A Dutch exemption that has been requested in the past 30 days is ready straight away; after that only the current roadworks and changes are updated.
- Permit route: the VYS logo, Truckroute and the yellow Convoi exceptionnel sign are shown at the top.
- Permit route: Show all details expands as a card, just like the roadworks, with the Auflagen and warnings in their place along the route; a height Auflage shows the height sign with the Absenkhöhe.
- Permit route in landscape: Route on the map and Start navigation are side by side.
- German Landesstraßen and Kreisstraßen (L, K and St) have a road shield in the details, the route, the guidance and the timeline.
- Green buttons have white text everywhere.
- Permit route in landscape: after loading a permit the page has two columns, with the trip overview, Route on the map and Start navigation always in view on the right; the countries are on one line and loading another permit is collapsed.
- In landscape the line with the weight from your profile is fully visible again above Start navigation, and the field for a shared permit code shows its text normally.
- The three floating bridges over the Noordhollandsch Kanaal (Burgervlotbrug, Sint Maartensvlotbrug and Vlotbrug 't Zand) are closed to trucks; the route goes around them.
- New version of the app at 22:27: Android 1.0.3 (vc131)
- You zoom into an Absicherungsplan with two fingers and move it with one finger when enlarged; double-tap switches between fit and enlarged. In landscape the drawing fits on the screen, with the title and Close beside it.
- A button in a balloon on the map, such as Plan for an Auflage, also works when your finger moves slightly while tapping.
- If there is no route for your vehicle in your direction of travel, for example because the road ahead is a dead end or not permitted, the app now tells you and asks you to turn around as soon as it is safe and permitted. Before, the route then started in the other direction without explanation.
- New version of the app at 22:12: Android 1.0.3 (vc129)
- Navigation no longer freezes for half a minute when the closures on the map are refreshed; instructions and position simply continue.
- The 3D vehicle stays in view while navigating and no longer disappears below the bottom of the screen.
- German permit: if the permit states an Absenkhöhe, it is shown in the warning (also with signs only), spoken aloud and shown on the height sign in the timeline.
- A weight sign that stands on a through road but applies to a side road (such as the 12 t sign for the floating bridge at Sint Maartensvlotbrug on the N9) no longer closes the through road and no longer gives a warning there; it applies to the side road.
- New version of the app at 21:48: Android 1.0.3 (vc128)
- Menu: Data per country is now at the very bottom, below Sources.
- Driving with a permit (the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany): the right side of the map shows a timeline with the Auflagen, warnings and roadworks of the next 150 km by default; touch the map to get the map buttons. In the Exceptional menu you choose this timeline, the usual timeline or the buttons.
- Preview drive for a permit: the Slider button shows a slider with the warnings of the next 150 km on the right instead of the timeline; slide to a spot or warning and the drive jumps there straight away, forward or back.
- Fixed route from here: if you are close to the store, the route takes the shortest way through town to the fixed route instead of first going back to the motorway.
- The route line and your vehicle stay in the lane of your own road and no longer shift onto a verge or parallel road next to it.
- New version of the app at 17:34: Android 1.0.3 (vc127), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (93)
- Exceptional transport in Belgium with Network 90 t or 120 t: if the start or end lies off the network, the route takes the shortest stretch to the nearest reachable point of the network and continues on the network; the stretch beside it is shown as off the network in the route.
- German permit: the section against the direction of traffic is shown in red on the map with the label WARNING ONCOMING TRAFFIC, in the app language, also in the route overview.
- German permit: the route overview shows all Auflagen as coloured dots along the route.
- Exceptional: set the first announcement from 1 to 10 km; voice and screen mention only the nearest Auflage, the next one once it is passed.
- Roadworks in the route overview: for German motorway works zones the maximum passage width, red when narrower than your vehicle, with a passage width filter.
- Permit: the route description in the details shows the road shields, with the roadworks and safety plans in place between the roads.
- German permit: the safety plans along the route are listed with the drawing of each plan, also from the balloon on the map; the route description shows the Auflagen and roadworks in place between the roads, and the details show the road shields.
- Route on the map: the balloon shows the road shield; roadworks are amber with a black outline, heights and bridges red and oncoming traffic purple. Save for later is now at the very bottom.
- Route on the map for a permit: the Layers button shows or hides the structures, the Auflagen, the roadworks and the oncoming traffic along the permitted route; tap a point for a text balloon above it.
- Permits: the last ten permits are listed as Previous permits at the top; one tap restores them with the countries, the network and the route section.
- Roadworks on the permitted route: with the road shield, the remaining width, the section and the direction, the full description and an On the map button.
- Roadworks: in Germany the section is shown next to the road number with the direction below it, every works zone has a road number, and the list starts with the motorways.
- Abnormal loads with the Belgian 90 t or 120 t network selected now also follow the network and the routes in Brussels; the route always follows the selected network, even if that means a detour.
- Map layer Exceptional transport (Belgium): now also Brussels, with the 90 t network, the 120 t network and the routes up to 100 t.
- Roadworks: tap a works zone to see it on the map; the full description is shown, no longer cut off. Disclaimer and Sources are now at the very bottom of the menu, below the Manual.
- Roadworks: search by road number, street name or town, on the traffic page and on the Roadworks page.
- Menu: new Roadworks page with the roadworks in progress per country; in the Netherlands and Germany the remaining width is shown, with a width filter. The language choice in the menu is collapsed by default.
- Roadworks in the route overview: in the Netherlands too, the remaining width is shown for a works zone when the road authority gives it.
- Timeline: fuel stations and rest areas along the motorway now appear over the full 150 km, the first four of each, in the app, CarPlay and Android Auto. Before, it showed only the first rest area and fuel stations within 50 km.
- Fixed routes: if you start somewhere other than the distribution centre, the route now joins the fixed route where that is quickest for the whole trip, instead of first driving to the motorway part from the distribution centre.
- New version of the app at 14:26: Android 1.0.3 (vc126)
- Android Auto: the app no longer stops when the connection to the car changes.
- German permit: if a condition in the permit sets a different route, the route now follows it; oncoming traffic (Gegenverkehr) appears in the permit overview, with how often and where, and while navigating the Beifahrer announces it in good time with a red bar and the voice.
- Dutch exemption with several route parts: Route on the map now shows the whole trip to the last end point when All parts is chosen, and with a single part chosen the overview lists only the roads of that part.
- German permit route: where the permit has you turn via an exit, the route now takes the on-ramp straight back instead of first driving on to a roundabout; and where the route changes to another road right next to a junction, it no longer makes loops through villages or side roads.
- Spanish tolls are now calculated: per toll road from the official 2026 rates, including the truck toll in Gipuzkoa and Bizkaia and the Cadí and Vallvidrera tunnels, excluding VAT.
- In Spain and other countries without rates in the calculation you now see how many kilometres of toll road the route has; the amount there is still shown as not calculated.
- If all suggested routes use toll roads, a toll-free route is added when it is faster than the slowest one, labelled No toll roads; if it is the fastest and cheapest, it comes first.
- You can now switch Calculate tolls and truck charge on or off per trip, before Calculate route and in the route overview; off calculates the route faster. Without a choice the setting in Menu > Route applies.
- Very long routes, such as from the Netherlands to Spain, calculate again: since yesterday they gave an error.
- In France the route now also takes congestion and traffic jams into account around Lyon, Marseille, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Nantes, Rennes, Rouen, Caen, Limoges, Saint-Etienne and Grenoble, and at more places where we already measure speeds.
- Abnormal loads on the Belgian 120 t network find a continuous route over that network again, also around Antwerp, instead of a stretch on the motorway.
- On the Belgian network for abnormal loads, the route no longer detours around a weight sign (C21) on that network; you still see and hear the sign on the way.
- A Dutch exemption with a return trip now also follows exactly the permitted road on the way back, without stretches on a parallel road or a turning loop.
- The abnormal loads page now shows in nine screens what the app announces on the way, with a Dutch exemption and with a German permit.
- The website is now also available in German, with its own page on navigation for abnormal loads, with pictures of the announcements for a Dutch exemption and a German permit.
- Visitors from Germany automatically get the German website and visitors from outside the Netherlands and Belgium the English one; if you pick a language at the top yourself, it is remembered.
- On the map layers, fuel stations, parking areas, places to eat and other large layers appear once you zoom in further, grouped with the number first. This keeps the app fast and stable, also while navigating.
- During the test period road charges and tolls are available again for every tester, also after your 7-day trial has ended.
- The route no longer makes you turn around on a road with separated carriageways, such as at a split or across the link in the central reservation (for example on the N508 near Alkmaar).
Saturday 07-11-2026
- New version of the app at 23:55: Android 1.0.3 (vc124), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (92)
- During navigation the map loads 20 km ahead instead of 50 km, so starting a route uses less memory.
- Long-pressing the map during a route gives the same choices as without a route, including report speed camera, stop and favourite.
- In landscape the vehicle runs lower on the screen, so you see further ahead.
- Permit: on the way the passage condition is shown in full in the warning panel, also a long one.
- Permit: Preview the trip (simulation) now also works for a Dutch permit, with the passage conditions on the way.
- Permit: if the permit has more route parts (out and back, or a continuation), you choose which part you drive or all parts in a row; the structures and the alerts on the way belong to the chosen part.
- Permit: the route follows the permitted route also where the map does not know that road, and no longer makes a detour there.
- New version of the app at 15:00: Android 1.0.3 (vc117), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (91)
- Android Auto now works like CarPlay: search addresses with the car keyboard, Saved, Traffic, Other routes, the route preview with Start, the timeline, the signs with speed and the inside or outside label, the large blue sign before a motorway exit, lanes and Then in the turn panel, the 3D vehicle and zooming and panning.
- Android Auto: the round icon now shows TRUCKROUTE in full.
- Timeline: the clearances of tunnels and aqueducts (and of low bridges) are shown as a sign with the height, white with a red border if your vehicle is too high. On or off in the timeline types (Clearances).
- CarPlay: the Convoi exceptionnel, LHV or ADR label (inside or outside) is shown top right next to the speedometer, with and without a route.
- CarPlay: with the truck's own GPS the vehicle no longer runs ahead of the truck at a roundabout or when braking.
- Bridges stay fixed on the map: they no longer change shape or colour as you approach, and the route passes fully underneath.
- New version of the app at 13:25: Android 1.0.3 (vc116)
- New installation: after logging in, the app asks for your vehicle in a few steps (type, registration number, dimensions, transport and ADR, a name). With a Dutch registration number the type and dimensions are filled in automatically. You can skip at every step.
- New installation: the timeline is on straight away, on the phone (together with Hide map buttons) and in CarPlay and Android Auto. An existing installation keeps its own settings.
- Exemption (NL, BE, DE): below the route of each country its own collapsed list Roadworks on the route, with what is in progress now and what is planned in the next 4 weeks, on the same road as the permitted route. The list refreshes by itself.
- New version of the app at 09:24: Android 1.0.3 (vc114), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (90)
- Elektronischer Beifahrer: the Auflagen are read out with a new recorded German voice. In Settings > Exceptional you choose between Voice 1 (this new voice, default) and Voice 2 (the German voice of your device).
- Elektronischer Beifahrer: in landscape the Absicherungsplan uses the full height of the screen, with the title, the text and Close beside it; the drawing no longer runs off the bottom of the window.
- Preview the trip: you hear only one voice, no longer two voices at once.
- The yellow Convoi exceptionnel sign at the bottom now stays neatly within its white border.
- A trip without traffic jams no longer shows a 1 minute delay at the bottom: only genuinely slow traffic counts towards the delay.
- German permit: the route now always follows the roads in the permit. Where the route used to take a stretch over another road (for example at a junction where two motorways cross), it now drives over the permitted road, and a recalculation no longer sends you back to such a detour.
- German permit: a junction that has a shorter name in the permit than on the map is now recognised, so the route no longer takes a detour there.
- Roadworks in the timeline now show the real roadworks sign, also in CarPlay and Android Auto.
- A height restriction on a parallel road no longer closes the motorway next to it: on the A73 near Heumen the route sent trucks on a detour via Grave for no reason.
- In the Netherlands a height under 4.0 m on an A road or under 3.6 m on an N road no longer counts, neither for the route nor in the timeline: such a low height belongs to a road alongside.
- Permit: structures for which the permit sets conditions are now called structures with remarks instead of not suitable; the conditions are in the permit.
- Permit: the summary now has an overview of the requirements per section, as in the permit: structure, hectometre post, number of escorts and passage condition.
- Permit: on the road the app announces each passage condition just before the structure, with the hectometre post, on screen and by voice (at 2 km, 500 m and at the structure).
- A route no longer makes a long detour just to avoid a few town streets: for every kilometre of minor road avoided, the detour may be at most 2 km.
Friday 06-11-2026
- New version of the app at 23:58: Android 1.0.3 (vc107)
- German permit: when a long route is calculated for the first time, the app shows a progress bar with a rising percentage, instead of saying after 30 seconds that there is no internet.
- Elektronischer Beifahrer: the Absicherungsplan fits completely on screen, also in landscape on a tablet and above the taskbar.
- The map on the phone no longer keeps drawing while the app is in the background; this saves battery and keeps the phone cooler.
- New version of the app at 21:18: Android 1.0.3 (vc106)
- Android Auto: Truckroute now appears as its own navigation app on the car screen, with the map, the turn and the travel time from the phone (test version).
- Android: after Start navigation the app responds straight away again; on some phones the map camera ran several times at once and kept the screen busy.
- If the app starts without internet, it loads the map again as soon as internet is back, so CarPlay and Android Auto no longer stay black.
- New version of the app at 19:32: Android 1.0.3 (vc105)
- New version of the app at 13:02: Android 1.0.3 (vc104), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (89)
- German permit: the route no longer makes a detour over a farm track next to the motorway (as near Bad Segeberg on the A20), and a short straight road from the permit is no longer wrongly reported as not driven.
- German permit: if the address in the permit is not on the map, the route now starts or ends in the town of that address, no longer at a street with a similar name elsewhere in Germany.
- Routes to a destination the truck cannot reach all the way to the address (the route then ends as close as possible) are calculated up to almost twice as fast with live traffic.
- Routes are calculated faster: on Choose a route the calculation time on the same trips is almost a third shorter, and after an update of the route server the first route is no longer extra slow. The routes themselves stay exactly the same.
- Exemption or permit: if you leave the permitted route and continuing on major roads is shorter and faster, the app asks whether you want to go back to the route or take the alternative route; without a choice it goes back to the route after 20 seconds. The part outside the permitted route is shown in purple dashes on the map, is listed in the route overview and the sign at the bottom turns red. Also in CarPlay.
- German permit: a permitted route of more than 1,000 km (for example from southern Germany to the Danish border) gave the message that the line does not fit the map; that route now works normally.
- Delay from traffic jams: the jams in the timeline and the balloons on the map now add up to the delay at the bottom, and for a truck only the delay it really has counts; traffic moving faster than your speed limiter no longer counts as a jam.
- Map: a traffic jam on your route only shows as orange or red colour on the green route line, no longer also as a line on the road next to it; traffic jams on another carriageway stay visible.
- If your truck is heavier, wider or longer than a regular truck may be, the route panel says it is exceptional transport, with a button that turns Exceptional on.
- Live traffic in Spain: in Madrid the app now knows the current traffic on the M-30 and the access roads, updated every 5 minutes; traffic jams there appear on your route and on the map.
- Settings: the two options that were both called 3D are now called Map in 3D (the map tilts and zooms in while navigating) and 3D vehicle (the vehicle icon at real size).
- Map: a closed-to-trucks sign with times only appears when the ban applies right now, and without the long time text; tap the sign for the times.
- Arrival time: on provincial and local roads the app now allows a little more time for a truck, in line with how trucks actually drive there on average; on the motorway nothing changes.
- Motorway exits: the route line stays on the exit lane until the exit really bends away and no longer cuts diagonally across the chevron area at the last moment. This also applied on motorway stretches the app did not recognise as motorway, such as the A20 at Vijfsluizen towards the A4 (with the next version of the app).
- Germany: short-term roadworks on the Autobahn with a closed lane now appear on your route, with the road narrows sign and in the timeline; the road stays open, so the route does not change because of them.
- Android: while Android Auto is connected, the app may also rotate to landscape on a regular phone, so it fills the whole car screen when mirrored (with the next version of the app).
- Where you drive under a road that crosses a sunken road section (such as at Venekoten on the N381), the green line now goes under that road instead of over it.
- Recalculating is faster: a trip that got stuck in the calculation now gets the best route within about 40 seconds instead of an error after 45 seconds.
- Android: recalculating also works with the app in the background or the screen off; the new route sometimes waited until you opened the app again (with the next version of the app).
- CarPlay: a flyover with no road surface drawn under the deck is no longer a black block but light, also with the phone locked, just like on the phone (with the next version of the app).
- Overhead sign gantries: a gantry you have just driven under no longer shows as a large dark block at the bottom of the map; the sign disappears as soon as you are under it, the beam just after (with the next version of the app).
- Lanes at an exit: if the exit goes to the right (or left), the app now points to the lanes with the arrow to that side and no longer to the straight-ahead lanes, as at De Meern from the N228 onto the A12.
- CarPlay: on the blue sign at a junction, the direction you need gets room for the whole place name, and every arrow stays within its own lane (with the next version of the app).
- Timeline: border crossings appear when you switch them on (Border crossings in the timeline options), with the country you are entering. In CarPlay they follow with the next version of the app.
- Exemption through several countries: Country of departure, Via and Country of arrival are listed in driving order, and the app tells you when the permits do not connect. A Dutch exemption can also be chosen as a PDF, and a Belgian network permit (90 or 120 t) is recognised: then you only enter your destination.
- The app is now also available in German. Choose the language in the settings (Automatic, Nederlands, English or Deutsch); automatic follows the language of your phone, otherwise English.
- Electronic co-driver: the voice keeps it short, only the type of Auflage, the sign and the metres; the full text stays on screen (can be switched off under Exceptional, Short announcements).
- Choose a route now also shows a route through a truck ban when it is at least 2 minutes faster: last in the list, in red with Through a ban and which signs you pass. Only drive there if the exception on the sign applies to you or with an exemption. The normal route stays the default.
- Exemption: the route per step is collapsed by default (from, to and distance); tap Show all details for the rest.
- Exemption across several countries: the fetched route now appears directly under the country it belongs to, and at the bottom there is a trip overview with the calculated route per step.
- Exemption and fixed route: the destination search now also finds companies and terminals by name, such as AET (Antwerp Euroterminal) in the port of Antwerp.
- LHV: if your destination is close but the network goes a long way round, the route takes the short way if it drives at most 2.5 km more off the LHV network and is at least 10 km shorter. The part off the network is shown with the red sign and the notice that an exemption is needed there.
- German permit: a motorway the route does drive on is no longer wrongly reported as "not driven" (such as the A6 near Viernheim).
- Roundabouts with a bypass: a truck or bus now takes the bypass if it is not longer and not slower, also at places where the route still went over the roundabout (such as near Westerbork on the N381).
- Overtaking ban with times: the supplementary plate with the time that applies now (such as Mon-Fri 06:00-19:00) is shown under the sign again, also on Android. In CarPlay the overtaking ban with that time under it is now also shown next to the speed when the timeline is on.
- Pasting a copied exemption number or PIN code now also works when there is text around it, such as "Ontheffingsnummer: 2026093931": the app picks out the number.
- The LHV sign (on or off the LHV network) now shows HEEL in the front trailer and LANG in the second one of the vehicle icon.
- A viaduct you drive under no longer shows as a black block on a light map where the map draws no asphalt (or with Plain map): the bridge deck then gets the colour of the roads on the map.
- LHV: if you are just off the LHV network with your LHV (for example on the Biddingweg in Dronten), the route again takes the short way to the network and the destination, instead of a detour of dozens of kilometres to drive a few metres less off the network.
- Electronic co-driver, in the settings under Exceptional: choose how far ahead the first and second announcement come, a signal at the end of an Auflage (Chime, Bing, Tada, Drop or none), a closing sentence after the last Auflage, the start, the announcements and the navigation instructions on or off separately, and on the map all Auflagen, only the next one or the next two.
- Fixed routes: the route to AH Bergen (Binnenhof) now enters Bergen from the N9 via the Bergerweg (N510), as the route description says, and no longer via the Kogendijk. And the routes from DC Zaandam towards Alkmaar and the north of North Holland now simply stay on the A9 at Uitgeest, without leaving it and turning around.
- Electronic co-driver: the lane is now also shown when the permit writes it in full ("1. Fahrstreifen") or abbreviates it as ST (hard shoulder).
- With the choice "use main roads as much as possible", the route no longer sends you off an exit, over the roundabout and straight back onto the same motorway via the on-ramp when you can simply go straight on (as on the A-3 in Spain at exit 255).
- A camera at a junction now appears only once in the timeline (also in CarPlay), and you hear the warning and the question whether it is still there only once. Such a camera used to appear twice, as a speed camera and as a red light camera.
- Closed roads are now always shown as a bright red line on the map while you have a route, also while navigating and in CarPlay, so you can see why the route takes a detour.
- Cross-border exemption: between the country of departure and the country of arrival you can now also choose the countries you drive through, in order (for example from Germany via the Netherlands to Belgium). If you use the network in the middle country, at the end of the first permit the app drives over the network to the start of the next one, which then starts by itself.
- Exemption for Belgium or Germany: the PDF can also come from a cloud folder. On Android, your cloud folders now also appear in the file picker; on the iPhone you find them in the picker under Browse, Locations.
- iPhone: without a route, location (the blue arrow) is off as soon as you are not using the app, also after your car with CarPlay has been switched off; while CarPlay is connected it stays on, so the map in the car is ready.
- CarPlay: on the blue sign at a split, the direction you need to take gets room for the full place name (such as 's-Hertogenbosch and Waalwijk next to three lanes straight on); the other directions become narrower, and if it still does not fit, the sign becomes wider.
- On a phone in landscape (such as a Galaxy Z Flip) the Calculate route and Start navigation buttons always stay in view: if the route panel does not fit, you scroll through the middle part.
- Android: an old notification with an earlier turn no longer stays in the notification bar; while navigating only the current turn is shown there.
- Bus and truck near Zuidlaren: the bridge on the N386 Hunzeweg was on the map with a 10 tonne axle load that does not apply there, so the route took a long detour or found no route. That bridge can now be used normally (Zuidlaarderveen to Annen is 9 km again).
- If there really is no route for your vehicle, the app now says so quickly instead of after a long wait.
Thursday 05-11-2026
- New version of the app at 21:52: Android 1.0.3 (vc103), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (88)
- If the route takes a detour because the map has a road closed to your truck (too heavy, too high, prohibited), the app now also explains this when the detour mainly costs time (from 5 minutes) and only a few kilometres, such as around a bridge with a weight limit.
- No more traffic jams on the map that have already cleared: if updating fails for a while (poor reception), the old jams disappear after six minutes, and when you return to the app the jams are updated immediately.
- Lanes: at a split shortly after an exit, the app no longer shows the lanes of that exit (for example three straight and one right at a split to the left). And at three places where the map had the lanes swapped, the app now points to the right lane: the Beekbergen junction from the A50 to the A1 towards Amsterdam (right), the A61 near Venlo and the N11 near Bodegraven.
- If you drive on a motorway where roadworks move the traffic onto the other carriageway (like the A6 near Emmeloord), a new route now starts on the motorway in your direction again, no longer via a path next to it or back to the previous exit.
- Less memory and a cooler phone while navigating: after a recalculated route the app only preloads the new part of the map, instead of 50 km again each time. As a result iOS no longer stops the app because memory runs full.
- The app no longer crashes when you take a call or briefly open another app while navigating: the map on the phone is no longer updated in the background, and is up to date again as soon as you return.
- Navigation in the background: the next turn is shown with arrow, distance and arrival time in the notifications (Android) and on the lock screen and in the Dynamic Island (iPhone). Each new direction briefly appears at the top, and in CarPlay as a banner when you are using another app there. Turn on or off under Settings, Navigation, Navigation pop-ups.
- New version of the app at 17:53: Android 1.0.3 (vc102), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (87)
- With Avoid small roads the route no longer takes a detour to avoid a few hundred metres of connecting road, such as in Westpoort in Amsterdam from the S102 to the A5.
- If the route stops before the address because your vehicle may not use the last part (such as De Leemkoele in Enter after 18:00), the app now always tells you why; before, it sometimes said nothing.
- If your vehicle cannot reach the address (such as an LHV with an 11.5 t axle load to the Transportweg in Maasdijk, behind a 10 t bridge), the route goes to the last reachable point on an ordinary road and the app tells you why; the route no longer ends on the motorway or turns around at every exit.
- Lanes in Belgium: at an exit the advice now follows the destinations per lane, such as at exit 13 on the R2 near Antwerp after the Liefkenshoek tunnel; there the app pointed to the left exit lanes instead of the rightmost lane of the exit.
- German permit: the digital co-driver now also warns for height limits in the permit that only give a place or a station, at the overpass itself, and announces the moments the permit prescribes: at 500 m yellow beacons on and sign 101, at 200 m the no-overtaking sign and the lane.
- Lanes: at a split shortly after an earlier instruction (such as the De Baars junction on the A58 towards Eindhoven) the advice now follows the destinations per lane; there the app said "Keep left" while the A58 continues on the right.
- The timeline is in order of the distance shown: roadworks or a traffic jam you are already in sits at the distance to its end (9 km left) and no longer at the bottom (phone and CarPlay).
- In a traffic jam the balloon with the remaining queue and the delay floats along with you smoothly, instead of jumping ahead step by step (phone and CarPlay).
- CarPlay: the red or orange traffic jam section lies on the green route line, also when it moves to another lane, and no longer on the lane next to it.
- CarPlay remembers your own zoom with + and -, also after the app restarts.
- New version of the app at 11:43: Android 1.0.3 (vc101), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (86)
- On some tablets the app stopped after planning a long route with alternatives or when starting navigation because memory ran full; the app now uses less memory there.
- Coach: the map layer with toilet disposal points has 39 more places in Germany, mostly truck stops along the Autobahn and coach companies (now 175 places in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany).
- New version of the app at 10:03: iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (85)
- Germany: on an Autobahn without a speed limit the app shows the maximum speed for your truck again (80 km/h or your speed limiter); before, no speed was shown there.
- A fixed route always goes ahead: only the height of your vehicle still counts. Weight, length, width and truck bans no longer send a fixed route on a detour, and where there is no detour around a low clearance the route still passes there, with a red warning in the summary.
- New version of the app at 09:54: Android 1.0.3 (vc100)
- Fixed routes: if a store has more arrival routes (for example morning, afternoon or evening), each route can have its own unloading point; the route takes you to the unloading point of the route you choose.
- Germany: the route now also knows the closed roads in North Rhine-Westphalia outside the Autobahn (federal, state and district roads during roadworks) and drives around them, in both directions.
- New Reviews page on truckroute.nl: what users write about Truckroute on our Facebook page, newest first.
- Fixed routes: a store can now have up to three fixed routes, each with its own name such as morning, afternoon or evening; in the app you choose by that name at the store, also when you continue to the next store after the departure route.
- If you brake and positioning drops out for a moment or arrives late, your vehicle on the map now brakes along to a stop instead of driving on at the speed from before braking; also in CarPlay. At a constant speed, such as in a tunnel, it simply keeps going.
- A new route after leaving the route or a traffic check arrives faster on mobile internet: the route is sent compressed again (about six times smaller).
- New version of the app at 08:23: Android 1.0.3 (vc99)
- Menu > Sources: each topic now shows its official source with a link, including low-emission zones and tolls abroad, LHV and exceptional transport, dangerous goods routes, permits, driving bans and the company search.
- Elektronischer Beifahrer: when a requirement comes with a safeguarding plan (A, G, S or PA), the plan shows as a button with a small drawing; tap it to see the official drawing in full, with the position of the escort vehicles, the signs and the distances.
- At a motorway exit or split, the turn and its lanes stay on screen until the exit has really left the motorway; only then do you see the lanes for the split after it (near Antwerp they jumped to straight on 100 m too early).
- The screen stays on as long as the app is open, also without a route and after you stop the route guidance (on a tablet the screen turned off after standing still for a while).
- Live traffic Belgium: a closure by a city or municipality on a street next to, under or over a motorway no longer shows as "motorway closed" in the list, but with the street (near Antwerp the E34 and the R1/E19 were wrongly shown as closed).
- Your vehicle no longer jumps back and forward again when the phone passes on its positions a little late: only the newest one counts, also when you are standing still.
- A truck no longer drives through a 30 km/h village street when a 50 or 80 km/h road around it is faster: in Winkel the route now takes the Hartweg instead of the Dorpsstraat.
- German permit: a turnaround that is part of the permit itself (the same exit there and back) no longer counts as an error, and the route to the destination follows the permitted roads better, without needless turning (for example near Ehingen via the B311 and B465).
Wednesday 04-11-2026
- New version of the app at 23:42: Android 1.0.3 (vc98)
- Elektronischer Beifahrer: when starting a German permit trip, an overview of the driving times from the permit, upcoming temporary driving bans, where to notify in advance (with a call button) and the emergency numbers. If you drive outside the permitted times, a red message appears and the voice announces it. Expired Auflagen disappear; an Auflage now also shows the safety plan, the escort and the traffic layout it applies to.
- Elektronischer Beifahrer: the lane from the permit is drawn below the sign, with when to change lanes and until where (for example "Wechseln auf den 2. Fahrstreifen, bis Ende Brücke") and the next lane if it changes within 3 km. The voice announces the lane. The speed limit, WVZ/Polizei and the Abstand from the permit are shown too. Also in CarPlay.
- A height sign that belongs to a side street no longer closes the roundabout next to it: in Zaandam the route now goes straight on at the Prins Bernhardplein instead of around (3.7 instead of 6.2 km).
- If the route avoids a sign on a roundabout or bridge, the sign is now also shown on the map as the reason (for example a 3.5 m clearance on a bridge).
- German permit: an exit that is not on the map is no longer confused with an exit of the same town; the route follows the permitted streets (for example the K17 Brackeler Straße in Dortmund) and the notice that a road is not driven disappears there.
- Exceptional transport in Belgium: with the 90 or 120 tonne network selected, the Belgian part now stays on that network, also with a vehicle heavier than 100 t and on a trip with stops. The border crossing is on the right border: from Zeeuws-Vlaanderen for example at Sluis, no longer via France.
- Permit route and fixed route: if you are driving on the route, the app no longer sends you off the motorway and back on. On the motorway the app sometimes did not recognise that you were already on the route, or picked a point just behind you, and then had you detour via an exit and a roundabout.
- Signs: for more than 100 axle load, weight, length, width or height signs the route now uses the value shown on the sign in the street, including bridges with a 10 tonne axle load that were set to 1 tonne.
- LHV and abnormal loads: if your trip starts on a road outside the network, the route now joins the network ahead of you (for example right at the roundabout) instead of first driving back and taking a detour of several kilometres.
- New version of the app at 21:03: Android 1.0.3 (vc97), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (84)
- Sign-in: as a new user you can again enter your company name after entering the code from the e-mail; the code ran out if you tapped Sign in several times.
- Exceptional transport: new Exceptional settings page. Choose whether the Elektronischer Beifahrer for a German permit shows only the signs you set on the Anlage (Zeichen 276, 277 or 101), without the Auflage text, and whether the distance to the Auflage is shown. If oncoming traffic has to be stopped, "Gegenverkehr sperren" is shown with the signs. Tap the message for the full Auflage. Also in CarPlay.
- Agricultural vehicle: new N roads setting for the vehicle: normal, use N roads as much as possible, or avoid N roads and 80 km/h roads.
- Website: new pages on navigation for agricultural vehicles and contractors (agricultural road map, sign C8, tractor on the expressway, 25 or 40 km/h, setting up the app for your tractor) and on navigating to a cadastral parcel.
- LHV and abnormal loads: if the route takes a detour because a road is not part of the permitted network, a message with a sign now appears on the map where the route turns off, just like a road closed to trucks. The part outside the network is now correct too: only the metres that really lie outside the network.
- Signing up on the website: after saving your company details you now go straight to the route planner.
- Navigate to a cadastral parcel: type the cadastral municipality, section and parcel number in the search field (for example Teteringen A 23 or TTR00 A 23); the outline is shown on the map and the route ends on the road next to it. Also in CarPlay, where you can now search for a hectometre post too.
- For abnormal loads, the choice of the Belgian 90 or 120 tonne network now only appears for a trip in, to or through Belgium.
- The sign inside or outside the network now shows a picture instead of letters: the LHV combination, the yellow Convoi Exceptionnel sign for abnormal loads and a tractor for agricultural vehicles; in CarPlay with the next test version.
- Cross-border permit: Route on the map now shows the whole trip, including the part over the network to the start of the permit or from its end to your destination, with the kilometres per part.
- Cross-border permit: if the trip starts in the Netherlands on the indivisible load network and connects to a German or Belgian permit, you can now also enter a departure address; without an address the route starts at your current position.
- The route only takes a detour around traffic if it is at least 5 minutes faster; otherwise you stay on the normal, shorter road, also with a fixed route from your current location.
- Agricultural vehicle: the route now avoids C8 and C9 signs (closed to agricultural and forestry tractors), and the map no longer shows truck prohibition signs that do not apply to a tractor.
- Motorhome, van, agricultural vehicle and coach get their own texts: while calculating it no longer says "roads for freight traffic", and truck bans, the truck charge, no-overtaking zones for trucks and truck parkings only appear where they apply to your vehicle.
- Agricultural vehicle: every road up to 60 km/h is now part of the agricultural network (for example the Westfriesedijk between Kolhorn and Winkel), in the route and on the Agricultural road map layer.
- New in the Menu: Driving bans. Choose a country to see the standing bans with the official source, the weekly bans and a calendar of the days with a special ban, such as public holidays, for every country in Europe.
- The drive-away route of every store now ends at the first main road, also on the map; after that you drive a normal route to the DC or to the next store.
- New version of the app at 16:36: Android 1.0.3 (vc96)
- Android: landscape works again on the Galaxy Z Flip and Z Fold, tablets and built-in vehicle screens; in the previous two test versions the app stayed in portrait there.
- A section speed check or speed camera within 10 km no longer disappears from the timeline when not all points fit; the farthest other points are dropped first. In CarPlay with the next test version.
- Routes are now also calculated to and through Norway and the United Kingdom, including the ferries across the North Sea and the Channel.
- New version of the app at 12:55: Android 1.0.3 (vc95), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (83)
- A village or district with a truck ban for the whole zone (such as Denekamp) now counts as an area: through truck traffic goes around it, and if you need to be inside the zone, the route enters via a street with a zone sign instead of cutting through the residential streets.
- At the Sluiskil tunnel and the Westerschelde tunnel the app no longer shows a 4.3 m width sign: there is no such sign along the road. For exceptional transport the width of the tunnel still counts.
- Live traffic now also on the motorways in Baden-Württemberg (including the A5, A6, A8 and A81): congestion and delays there count in your route and arrival time.
- For a store with a departure route, the instruction for leaving is now shown large and in full in a yellow box, and when you leave it is shown as a balloon on the map at the first turn, also in CarPlay and on the car display.
- With an LHV the route on Maasvlakte 2 again goes straight along the Maasvlakteweg to Euromax and the terminals on the north side, instead of a detour of more than 10 km.
- A narrow road with red cycle lanes on both sides now counts with its full width, so trucks can pass each other there: it is no longer avoided and no longer shown dark purple on the map (for example Rambonnetweg near Wezep).
- On long routes the screen no longer keeps freezing briefly while navigating: the app now only recalculates the route line around your vehicle. Comes with the next test version.
- With special transport or an LHV you sometimes wrongly got the message that the destination is not allowed (for example Welplaatweg in the Botlek), while the route did reach it; that message and the wrong position of the destination on the map are gone.
- When planning a route you can now choose per trip on which side the destination lies: Fastest, Right or Left. Without a choice your setting Destination on your side applies.
- When you look up a store under Fixed routes, the remarks (temporary, loading, route and unloading) are shown right below the address, not only with the route.
- On a fixed route the unloading remark is shown as a balloon at the unloading point: visible from 100 m and it stays when you arrive, until you start a new route or close the message. Route remarks are shown on the road they are about, from 200 m before to 20 m after.
- For a fixed route the remarks are now shown separately: Loading remarks, Route remarks and Unloading remarks, with a temporary remark at the top.
- New version of the app at 09:09: Android 1.0.3 (vc94), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (81)
- At two splits close together, the lane guidance now immediately shows the lanes that are also right at the second split (for example on the A50 near Arnhem: the left two towards Utrecht and Rotterdam).
- A traffic sign for height, width, length, axle load or weight without a value no longer appears as an empty sign in the timeline (for example a height sign without a height on the A32).
- In CarPlay, far ahead of a turn, an empty blue sign with only a small arrow and the road number is no longer shown; you then see the green panel with arrow and road number. Comes with the next test version.
- If you pick a point on the map as destination, the address (street and town) is shown at the bottom again instead of the GPS coordinates.
- At an intermediate stop on a route, navigation no longer turns around at the stop itself but continues in the direction of the route (for example in Reusel).
- A remark from route management on a fixed route now appears only 200 m before the spot and disappears again 20 m after it, including the balloon on the map while driving.
- Settings, Sources now lists all official sources per country with a link, including those for Belgium, France, Germany, Spain and Sweden.
- In the settings (with the direction panel) you can now also set the size of the Then notice below the green panel; by default it stays as it was.
- In the route preview in CarPlay all routes and their travel times are now shown next to the panel, no longer behind it.
- Under Direction panel size, the Height slider is now called Text size: it makes the text, the arrow and the lanes in the green panel larger or smaller.
- On Android, the menu, the explanations of the settings and the manual no longer show CarPlay items and texts.
- Faster route found now has an On the map button: you see the faster route next to your own route, zoomed out, and then choose Take it, Ignore or Back.
- A height or weight sign of a cycle path or service path no longer ends up on the road next to it (for example no more 2.5 m on the Vondelingenweg in Hoogvliet).
- From store to store, navigation now switches to the route to the next store sooner after leaving: after the first part of the departure route, never onto the motorway or towards the distribution centre first.
- At a remark from route management on a fixed route, a yellow arrow now also appears on the route line, from 20 m before to 20 m after the spot.
- On the sign for maximum length and axle load the value is now neatly above the arrow, smaller and inside the red border.
- A no-overtaking zone that is repeated along the road (a new sign after every junction) now appears only once in the timeline. Comes with the next test version.
- With a weak GPS signal your vehicle no longer jumps back and forth along the route: inaccurate position fixes between good ones are ignored.
- You can now turn off the question whether a speed camera is still there under Settings, Navigation; the warning before the camera stays.
- Long trips over regional and provincial roads find the fastest route more often, because the route searches further on intermediate roads (for example Pisa-Bergamo: now 289 instead of 341 km).
- To the ferry terminal in Hoek van Holland the route drives straight onto the terminal again (about 5 km) instead of a detour of over 800 km via Calais; the ferry to Harwich can be planned properly again too.
- Tall trucks can take the IJmuiden-Newcastle ferry again: a wrong height limit at the IJmuiden terminal has been removed from the map.
- Near Saint-Brieuc (France) the route towards Brest stays on the N12 and no longer goes through the centre: a wrong 3.5 tonne weight limit on the viaduct has been removed from the map.
- On roundabouts the route now uses the speed of a truck (20 km/h), so a faster bypass next to the roundabout wins more often.
Tuesday 03-11-2026
- New version of the app at 23:13: Android 1.0.3 (vc93), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.3 (80)
- New map layer Roadside restaurants and truck stops: where you can eat with a truck, with truck stops, snack bars, restaurants and showers, and navigation there.
- New: a manual at the bottom of the menu, explaining every function and every setting, with a chapter on saving battery.
- In South Tyrol (Italy) the route now takes closures and alternating one-lane traffic on the provincial roads into account, also when a road is only closed at certain hours.
- Navigation uses less battery, especially on Android: the app recalculates the screen far less often while driving (in a test drive on an Android phone from 17 to 2.5 times per second). Comes with the next test version.
- Along the German Autobahn the truck parkings now show the number of truck spaces (over 1,800 rest and parking areas), and the charging points show whether they are on the Autobahn and part of the Deutschlandnetz.
- Live traffic in Luxembourg: queues and congestion on the A1, A3, A4, A6, A7, A13 and B40 motorways now count in the route and show on the map.
- Spoken directions no longer briefly switch to a different voice for road numbers such as N508, N192 and E92: these numbers have been re-recorded.
- Truck travel times are more realistic: on motorways and expressways the route no longer uses the full speed limiter, but what trucks really drive there (with a 90 limiter now 85 km/h, with 85 now 82.5 km/h).
- Exceptional transport: a trip entirely within Belgium on the Belgian 90 or 120 t network now stays in Belgium and no longer drives through the Netherlands.
- More truck parkings on the map, especially in Germany, and a new map layer Fuel stations (not checked): fuel stations not yet known to be suitable for trucks, separate from the checked fuel stations.
- New vehicle type Agriculture: the route follows the agricultural road map as much as possible, with your height, width, length, weight and a speed of 25 or 40 km/h, and the map shows the agricultural network. Agriculture only calculates routes in the Netherlands.
- Adding a favourite from the favourites page works again on the iPhone: after choosing the address the app asks for the nickname and saves the favourite, instead of jumping back to the favourites page.
- An overtaking ban for trucks now continues in the timeline up to the end sign, even when the road passes an exit on the way, such as on the A58 between Tilburg and Eindhoven.
- If the route goes straight on at a shallow fork, navigation now points to the straight-on lanes and no longer to the exit lane, such as on the Reeweg in the Waalhaven (Rotterdam).
- In Sweden a bus lane or a crossing for service vehicles next to a main road no longer closes the road to trucks.
- Exceptional transport: if the start, a stop or the destination is in Belgium, you choose the Belgian 90 or 120 t network for the route, also to a point on the map and without Cross-border.
- New version of the app at 18:17: Android 1.0.2 (vc92), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.2 (77)
- Theme Automatic turns dark in low light: on Android via the light sensor, on iPhone via auto-brightness and in CarPlay via the day/night mode of the car.
- The container terminals on the Maasvlakte (RWG, APM Terminals Maasvlakte II, ECT Delta and Euromax) now lead to the truck gate when searched, and the route no longer drives across the terminal yard.
- Searching for RWG no longer returns a wrong place in Europoort, but the Rotterdam World Gateway terminal on the Maasvlakte.
- New version of the app at 08:42: Android 1.0.2 (vc91)
- The route no longer makes detours of tens of kilometres to save half a minute: besides the driving time, the distance now counts as well, so fewer trips are much longer than needed.
- No more detour for a height limit that does not exist: on the N113 near Arles (France) and on the E4 near Ljungby (Sweden).
- In Sweden a road with a ban that exempts trucks, goods transport or loading and unloading is no longer closed to trucks.
- In the settings (Navigation) you choose where your vehicle sits on the map: left, centre or right, separately for portrait and landscape, with a slider to move it a little further.
- Rotating the screen from landscape to portrait and back no longer makes the map freeze; the map adapts to the new orientation straight away, even when you are standing still.
- In landscape on Android your vehicle and the route sit to the right of centre, beside the directions instead of right up against them.
- On an Android phone you can turn on landscape rotation in the settings (Navigation); by default the phone stays in portrait. Tablets always rotate.
- On a landscape screen (tablet, in-cab display) the direction panel is a quarter smaller, and in the settings you can set its landscape size separately.
- On the motorway the route line no longer briefly moves onto the merging lane of a slip road and back, but stays on the right-hand through lane.
- If you leave a fixed route from the distribution centre, navigation now picks up the route further along instead of sending you all the way back to the distribution centre.
- On a landscape screen (tablet, iPad, in-cab display) the timeline now runs to the bottom and your vehicle sits lower on the map, so you see further ahead.
- If not all points fit in the timeline, the furthest ones are left out and the nearest stay easy to read, instead of the bottom ones overlapping.
- An overtaking ban now appears only once in the timeline, even when several signs with different times stand at the same spot.
- When you drive a fixed route from one store to the next, navigation now switches to the route to the next store right after leaving, instead of sending you on towards the distribution centre.
- The next part of a fixed route (after leaving the store) now starts where you are at that moment, no longer at the store you left from.
- A fixed route from your current position now joins where you actually meet the route, instead of driving on and turning around.
- Close to the store (from one store to the next, or after a detour) a fixed route now takes the shortest way to the last part of the route, instead of sending you back to its start.
- The route no longer makes you turn around on the road when there is a reasonable detour via an exit or roundabout, also right after departure and when recalculating.
- A low loader without a filled-in ground clearance now still gets a route to an address that can only be reached via a level crossing with a height difference, instead of no route.
- A closure without an end date that has been open for more than a day no longer makes the route take a detour; planned closures with an end date still apply.
- In France the route no longer makes detours of up to 200 km for a width limit that belongs to a small road next to the motorway, such as near the A8 at Le Muy.
Monday 02-11-2026
- New version of the app at 23:27: Android 1.0.2 (vc90), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.2 (76)
- A German permit with a digital escort now announces every condition on the way at 2 km, 500 m, at the start and at the end, in German with the sign on the map and the stretch where it applies in orange; if you leave the permitted route, a warning sounds and stays on screen.
- For a German permit the app now creates the Funktionsbescheinigung for the digital escort as a PDF, filled in according to the official model.
- You can share a German permit with the escort vehicles and the police using a code: they get the same route and the same conditions without loading the PDF themselves.
- Preview the trip: play the permitted route with all announcements as a simulation before you leave.
- For every permit you can keep notes and contacts (police, escort, gate, customer); on the way you open them with a button and call with one tap.
- New button First to the start of the permit route: a normal route from your position to the starting point, where the permit route starts by itself.
- Offline driving with a permit: the app prepares the trip (route, map along the whole trip and warnings; by itself on wifi), starts without internet and, without internet after a deviation, points the way back to the permitted route with an arrow and the distance.
- A permit route now takes precedence over a restriction on the map when the road is in the permit, just like fixed routes.
- The route planner now knows about 7,000 more height, width, length, axle load and weight limits in the Netherlands, mainly on smaller roads, and more tunnels with an ADR category; the route now avoids them if your lorry is not allowed through.
- A very long permit route, such as a German permit of more than 600 km, is calculated again instead of giving an error message.
- An exemption route now stays on the road of the permit: no more detours over a bus lane, emergency crossing, car park or cycle path next to the road, no back and forth where the permit has road sections out of order, and the route starts and ends exactly at the start and end point of the permit, without turning around across the border.
- A closed road now appears only once on the map: the balloon at the junction names the road, the reason, how far ahead and when it is closed; at the spot itself only the sign remains.
- Works by a water board or municipality next to a motorway no longer close that motorway: on the A15 near Hardinxveld the route sent you off the motorway and back on.
- On the road you now see 110 more no-overtaking signs for lorries, mainly on motorways, with the times from the additional panel where they could be read; each sign was first checked on a street photo.
- In the settings you can now choose the language of the app yourself: Automatic (the language of your phone), Dutch or English, also outside the Netherlands and Belgium.
- The sections of the settings are in alphabetical order, with Map layers at the top.
- The map on the phone now draws 25 instead of 30 frames per second while driving, to use less battery.
- Android: without a route the GPS now stops as soon as you leave the app, so the battery no longer drains while the app is in the background; during navigation and with CarPlay it keeps running as before.
- New version of the app at 19:47: Android 1.0.2 (vc89)
- The yellow turn arrow now lies fully on top of the green route line, also where that line runs in your lane; the arrowhead used to disappear under the green line there.
- Under the green block there are at most two extra instructions, including the Then line: the nearest at the bottom, farther ones above it; when the bottom one disappears, the next one moves in.
- The VYS voice pronounces road numbers clearly again: the A1, A12 and other A, N and E roads have been recorded again and each one checked, so you no longer hear a garbled number.
- New version of the app at 18:03: Android 1.0.2 (vc88), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.2 (75)
- The lane advice under the green block now runs from far to near: the farthest directly under the block, the next one at the bottom.
- New version of the app at 17:42: Android 1.0.2 (vc87), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.2 (74)
- A destination on a point on the map or a typed GPS coordinate is now named after the address (street, house number and town) instead of the coordinates, also in Recent searches.
- With "avoid small roads" an N road, and a slip road of a motorway or N road, never counts as a small road any more; the route now takes the A35 exit to the N18 at Grolsch in Enschede again, instead of a 7 km detour with a U-turn on the Westerval, and no longer avoids N roads such as the N520, N252 and N319.
- A German permit now reads every road number from the PDF, also when the route is written as a row with long dashes (such as "L 1095 – L 1088 – AS Neuenstadt" or "AS Amberg/West-B 299- re. B 14"); the route follows those L, B, K and St roads, and a permit you already loaded gets the improved route automatically.
- With a German permit the route now also follows the last streets to the address as the permit names them (for example the St 2156 and Böttgerstraße in Schwarzenfeld), instead of its own way through the town centre.
- A German permit with GPS coordinates at Start or Ziel (such as a wind farm) now starts and ends exactly there instead of in the town centre; more ways of writing road numbers and junctions are recognised (such as "re.B20", "B480/B7", "Verl. A 33", "bis AS Amberg-Ost" and typos in an exit name), and the route no longer drives short stretches back and forth to reach a point.
- With a German permit the route no longer first drives the wrong way after an exit or a change of road and then turns around: near Hildesheim it goes from the A7 straight over the B1 and the roundabout to the Kennedydamm, near Brühl from the L150 via the B51 straight onto the A553. Short connecting stretches such as the K107 no longer count as not driven by mistake.
- A prohibition sign at the start of a narrow side road no longer closes the street next to it; over a hundred signs now sit on the side road they belong to.
- Tapping or long-pressing a speed camera on the map now offers Review: correct, wrong or a different speed limit; VYS checks every review and then adjusts or removes the camera.
- Address search now also finds secondary addresses (a second house number on the same building, such as Ruigewaard 40 in Rotterdam), houseboats and caravan pitches: over 84,000 more addresses.
- A red light camera on an on-ramp (at ramp metering) is no longer announced when you drive on the motorway next to it; only when you take that on-ramp yourself.
- On www.truckroute.nl you can now also report and review signs and restrictions: click a sign or restriction and choose Report or Review, or right-click (or press and hold) on the map to add a missing restriction, also without an account.
- In Other routes from here, Overview on the map now really zooms out so you see all routes on the map, also while driving.
- At a stop the arrival message stays on screen for a minute; after that the route continues with the part after the stop. If you drive onto the stop from the side or park in front of it, the app no longer sends you back to the stop.
- At every turn, roundabout and fork a yellow arrow is now drawn on the green route line, so you see at a glance where to go, also in CarPlay.
- A road closure in a two-level tunnel, such as the N2 and A2 in Maastricht, now closes the right tube; with Plan trip, a trip on another day or time no longer gets the closures of a trip planned earlier.
- On www.truckroute.nl you can now also drive the fixed routes of the app: routes behind a PIN code, scenic motorhome routes and a DWO exemption by number, with the summary of the exemption (dimensions, escorts, structures and roadworks).
- www.truckroute.nl now has the route options of the app: leave now with current traffic or at a later time, other routes to choose from, the arrival side, avoiding roads with "except loading and unloading", main roads as much as possible, narrow roads, speed limiter, and LHV, special transport, dangerous goods, coach and motorhome choices; the route takes the same signs into account as the app and shows the loading and unloading times at the destination and the signs along the route.
- Without internet you no longer get a message over the map while navigating or free driving; the route simply continues, and a red icon at the top of the buttons shows that there is no live traffic for now.
- At speed cameras and average speed checks a truck now sees the limit that applies to trucks, also where it depends on the weight (for example 70 above 3.5 t or 60 above 7.5 t in Belgium); average speed checks without a known limit now show the truck limit.
- At a motorway split, such as the A27 to the A28 near Utrecht, the green route line now lies in the lane you need well before the split, and no longer jumps across the lines at the last moment.
- The road number shield in the hectometre marker in the green panel is slightly smaller and now always fits inside the marker.
- On every screen with an input field, such as the vehicle profile, the page now moves up when the keyboard opens, so the field you are typing in always stays visible.
- At a motorway fork or exit the voice now tells you which lanes to keep to from 2 km ahead, when the lane block appears, instead of only just before the fork.
- Speed cameras, arrow boards, matrix signs, average speed checks, movable bridges and level crossings on a road below, above or next to your route are no longer announced: they must be on the same road as the route.
- A restriction on a car park or rest area that the route simply passes is no longer shown as a detour in the route overview.
- A road closure now closes the road that is actually closed, and no longer a road above, below or next to it, such as at tunnels and flyovers.
- With dangerous goods, a prohibited tunnel now only closes the tunnel itself, no longer also a road running above or next to it.
- With dangerous goods the route may leave the motorway before a tunnel, as at Zelzate via exit 13 and the Kennedylaan to Ghent: only the tunnel itself still counts as an ADR tunnel, not the exit before it.
- A destination behind a restriction gets a route up to that restriction on the side of the address, and no longer to a road across the water; the Veerdijk in Wormer can be reached by trucks again.
- When searching the settings the list now moves up with the keyboard, so you can also reach the bottom results.
- When you are in a traffic jam and zoom in, the label with the remaining jam and the delay no longer hides behind the green panel but sits in the visible part ahead of you.
- A closed road whose report is drawn in one direction only, such as the N233 between Rhenen and Veenendaal until 15-11, now counts in both directions: the route no longer sends you over it from Veenendaal either and reports the closure.
- In Austria and Italy the route now takes many more truck restrictions into account: maximum height and width, axle load and roads closed to goods traffic.
- While navigating with CarPlay the phone screen now has a button to the menu, so you can change settings without stopping the navigation.
- A German permit now takes the right branch at a motorway interchange when that branch first heads the other way, such as the A71 towards Suhl at the Erfurt interchange: the route no longer drives 8 km the wrong way and back.
- The map turns dark again when you choose Dark, or Automatic with the phone in dark mode, also after reopening the app and in CarPlay and Android Auto; before, it could stay light.
- From Germany to Denmark on the E45 the route now simply drives through the truck check at the border near Frøslev, and no longer makes a 60 to 90 km detour via Flensburg and Danish minor roads.
- A fixed route to a shop no longer gets stuck on "Recalculating route" when you take a different road on the way to the shop: the route is recalculated to the shop straight away.
- At roadworks where traffic is moved to the other carriageway (such as on the A6 near Lemmer now) the route simply stays and the app treats it as oncoming traffic, instead of recalculating over and over.
Sunday 01-11-2026
- New version of the app at 21:20: Android 1.0.2 (vc86), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.2 (73)
- A German permit now also follows Bavarian district roads (such as CO 27 near Coburg): the route drives through the villages as in the permit and no longer turns back over the motorway.
- The part of a route that is not possible because of a restriction, such as a prohibition sign or the last stretch to a destination behind a passage that is too low, is now shown with red dashes on the map, also in CarPlay and in Plan a trip, with the reason.
- In Plan a trip you now pick the time with a rolling time picker: you turn the hours and minutes like wheels.
- If your destination lies behind a passage that is too low or too narrow, the route no longer ends on the motorway next to it but on the ordinary road before it. Plan a trip now always explains why a trip does not work, with the same text as the main screen, and says so when the route ends before the destination.
- Long trucks can again enter the Het Klooster business park in Nieuwegein from the west over the Beatrixbrug: the 12 m length limit belongs to the lock road next to it. From the A15 this is now, for example, 51 km instead of 77 km.
- Reading a permit as a PDF (Germany and Belgium) now works with files up to 25 MB; it was 8 MB before, while a German permit is often 10 to 12 MB.
- The ADR tunnels map layer now also shows tunnels without restrictions (category A), such as the Liefkenshoek and Tijsmans tunnels in Antwerp, and the Tunnel d'En Raxat near Collioure can again be used with dangerous goods.
- A long route is calculated much faster: signs, closures and zones first count for the first 200 km, and after every 100 km of driving the app recalculates the route by itself with the next stretch. Enschede-Madrid took over 2 minutes and now about 45 seconds.
- Ordinary routes are also calculated faster, often two to five times as fast, with the same route as before.
- In Menu > Route you can turn off Calculate tolls and truck charge: the route is then calculated faster, without amounts for tolls and truck charge and without the choice of the cheapest route.
- With a stop on your trip you now also see the time to that stop: at the bottom while navigating, in the route overview before you start and in the route choice on CarPlay, including traffic up to the stop.
- New version of the app at 13:14: Android 1.0.2 (vc85), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.2 (72)
- The green route line now runs smoothly through the lane: small wiggles are gone, the line always stays within the lane and no longer jumps to a lane of the other carriageway.
- CarPlay: without a route the name of the road you are on now sits in the middle at the bottom, above your position, instead of off to the right. From the next version of the app.
- While driving a permit route the button for other routes no longer appears at the bottom: a permit route never deviates.
- In landscape on a tablet the left column is wider before you start: a wider search field and larger buttons on one line; buttons no longer span the full width and in the permit screen Route on the map, Save and Start sit side by side.
- Search now also finds streets without house addresses, such as roads at airports, business parks and ports (for example Koepelstraat at Schiphol): over 31,000 extra streets.
- Addresses in a zone with a weight limit and an exception for destination traffic can again be reached with a heavy truck, and the route past the Algerabrug near Krimpen aan den IJssel no longer uses a wrong clearance of 1.9 m; the bridge itself stays closed.
- With a permit route or a fixed route, the choice of the Belgian 90 or 120 tonne network no longer appears below the route overview: that route is fixed.
- Below the list of fixed routes you now see, per source, when it was last updated, only for the routes you see; before, it always showed the same source, also for routes that do not come from there.
- In Sweden the route no longer treats the E4 between Söderhamn and Hudiksvall as closed: a crossing for road maintenance was read as a truck ban, which made the route take a detour of more than 90 km.
- A route with a ferry is no longer chosen automatically because it is a few minutes faster: it is shown as a separate choice next to the route without a ferry, with the label With ferry and the length and duration of the crossing.
- After Calculate route the map zooms straight to the whole route, flat and north up, instead of first flying to another place or the sea.
- Fixed routes now also include stores without a distribution centre, behind their own PIN: you start from where you are, the route uses normal routing to the unloading point (also through low-emission zones) and you see the store's instructions.
- For fixed routes without a distribution centre some stores now also have a departure route: from the unloading point to the main road, after which you choose the next store by number or search for an address.
- If a fixed route cannot start, the message now says why, for example that your vehicle profile is set to abnormal load or LHV and that network does not reach the route.
- With a larger font size on the phone the collapsed route bar stays readable: travel time, distance and arrival each stay on one line and the Start navigation button no longer takes the full width.
- You can now add a note to every favourite, such as the loading entrance or the gate code. You see it with the favourite in the search list, on the favourites page, on the Favourites map layer and in the route overview; tap the speech bubble for the whole note. In CarPlay it is shown with the favourite in the list.
- With a German permit the start and end address are now exactly where the issuing authority placed them in the permit, instead of being looked up separately.
- The site has its own page about abnormal loads, also in the menu: fetch the exemption by its number (NL), read in the permit as a PDF (BE and DE), cross-border trips, saving and navigating without ever deviating.
- The All topics overview on the site is now at the very bottom of every page, below the VYS products.
- The site now also mentions the app for Android: on the app page, the home page and the page about abnormal loads.
Saturday 31-10-2026
- New version of the app at 22:10: iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.2 (71)
- German permits in which the route chapter is called "Fahrtweg" (such as those of the Stadt Nettetal) are now read, also with a start or end address at an airport or industrial estate without house numbers.
- A permit whose address is only a street (such as Muisbroeklaan - kaai 468 in the port of Antwerp) now ends where the route reaches that street, no longer kilometres away at the other end.
- An address such as "Muisbroeklaan, 2030 Antwerpen" (street and postcode, without a house number) now finds the street; the postcode was read as a house number.
- The choices for the timeline and for the layers along the route are shown in two columns with their full name; with bold text on the phone the last letter was cut off.
- A closure that covers more than one road now closes every road; before, the route could still use part of it (such as the Hazeldonkse Zandweg in Zevenbergen).
- In Map layers, Closures now also shows planned closures that have already started, such as those of municipalities and provinces.
- Automatic for the app and map theme now follows the dark or light mode of your phone, instead of the position of the sun.
- While driving without a route, the screen now really stays on while you drive and for up to 10 minutes when standing still; in today's version it kept briefly switching off.
- Map layers now include Truck ban from map data: truck bans that only exist in the map data, without a sign, shown as a red dashed line. Routes avoid them; tap one to report whether it is correct.
- New version of the app at 19:42: Android 1.0.2 (vc84), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.2 (70)
- After reading a German permit the app immediately builds the route that matches your start and end country; if the permit has several destinations, you only choose where you are going.
- For exceptional transport with Cross-border on you can now also choose Germany: read the German permit (PDF) on your phone, choose the route part (Fahrtwegteil) you drive and the app builds the mandatory route along all junctions, with the conditions from the permit in the route description.
- The lane change advice now says Continue straight when the right lanes are in the middle, and Keep right when they are on the right, instead of always Keep left.
- A fixed route that you start from your own location no longer sends you far back along the route when it recalculates on your way to the route; you join at the nearest point further on.
- The numbers in the speed bubble and the speed limit sign stay inside the circle, also when your phone uses a larger font size.
- Fuel stations and truck parkings only get a label on the map while driving when they are on the route within 5 km ahead of you, and the i button next to the green block is gone.
- Routes in France, Belgium and Sweden no longer detour for a restriction that belongs to a slip road, a parallel road or a road under the motorway, and in Alsace, Lorraine and the Vosges the incorrect 10-tonne axle limit on all roads no longer applies: routes there are shorter and calculated faster.
- A route from a Belgian permit now follows the itinerary without U-turns or loops: at every road change the route picks the right carriageway and the actual junction.
- For exceptional transport the Belgium switch is now called Cross-border. When it is off, the exemption screen only asks for the Dutch exemption number; when it is on, you choose countries, Belgian permits and the network.
- A no-entry sign for lorries and buses whose only exception is "scheduled buses" now also applies to coaches, as on the Merwedebrug in the A27: the route goes around it and the app names the ban as the reason.
- On a trip through two countries you choose a permit or the network for each country: the Netherlands over the indivisible load network, Belgium over the network up to 90 or 120 tonnes. The network can come before the permit (from your position to its start) or after it (to your destination).
- Clearances and weight limits of Belgian bridges and tunnels from the permit road map now count in the route, like the Dutch structures.
- Parking places for exceptional transport in Belgium are now in the Truck parkings layer for everyone.
- With exceptional transport, the ADR choice is no longer in the vehicle profile and no ADR code is sent with the route.
- A permit route (the Netherlands and Belgium) now always starts at the starting point of the permit, not at your current location; if you are at the start, navigation starts right away.
- When you save an exemption route you give it a name of your own, which you can change later with the pencil; the bin deletes it after a confirmation.
- Exceptional transport with Belgium turned on: for every trip you choose the Belgian network up to 90 tonnes, up to 120 tonnes or your permit. The Belgian part of the route then follows that network, and the overview shows at which border crossing you enter or leave Belgium.
- In the exemption screen you first choose from which country to which country you drive, then you get the permit for each country (the Netherlands with the exemption number, Belgium with the PDF). A trip from the Netherlands to Belgium first follows the Dutch route and starts the Belgian route by itself at the border.
- You can save an exemption or permit (Netherlands or Belgium) for later: the exemption screen shows the list Saved permits at the top, a tap gets a fresh copy, and without internet you get the saved version.
- For a bridge or tunnel on a Belgian permit route, the road, the municipality and the instruction (such as 5 km/h in the centre of the bridge) are now shown, and on a green map the mandatory route in the overview is dark blue.
- If you tap the Routes button while navigating a permit route, the phone now also says that there are no other routes; before, the button seemed to do nothing.
- Exceptional transport in Belgium: turn on Belgium in your vehicle profile and read the PDF of your Belgian permit in the Permit screen. The app reads the itinerary, builds the mandatory route from the border and follows it without deviating.
- In Map layers, Exceptional transport (Belgium) now also shows the network up to 120 tonnes, the mobile crane network, roads without a permit at own risk, obstacles, road works and facilities; Belgian bridges and tunnels are in the Structures layer with their height and instructions, and can be tapped.
- If your route enters an area with a weight limit and the additional panel except for access (or loading and unloading), that sign and its panel are shown in the route overview and in the list of restrictions, also close to your destination.
- If the route avoids a clearance that is too low or another size limit, the explanation is now also shown on longer trips (up to 150 km in a straight line).
- A sign announcing a restriction further ahead (sub-sign with a distance) is no longer shown on the map as a ban, and there is no longer a truck ban warning when there is no truck ban nearby.
- New version of the app at 13:02: Android 1.0.2 (vc83)
- If the route has to pass a truck ban at your destination, or leave a weight, length or axle load limit at your start, it now says which signs these are, on which road and how far, also in Plan a trip.
- With a coach as vehicle, Map layers has a layer with coach parking in the Netherlands as coloured flags (blue = parking, purple = getting on and off only, grey = not checked), with the number of coach spaces, price and navigation there.
- If your destination can only be reached through a clearance that is too low or another size limit, you get a route to just before that spot with a message (for example "clearance too low, Zwarte Pad, 500 m from the destination"), instead of no route.
- Fixed routes: Start from current location really starts where you are. At a store there is a button Start from store with the store number: first that store's departure route, then the approach route of the chosen store.
- The route no longer cuts through a low or zero-emission zone when you do not need to be there, even if your vehicle is allowed in; if your start or destination is inside the zone, it does enter.
- With a coach as vehicle, Map layers has a layer with coach toilet disposal points in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany as coloured flags (green = checked, grey = not checked), with navigation there.
- On the Map layers page the layers are in alphabetical order with a search field above them (typos allowed), and the Along the route block is collapsed by default with the chosen layers in its header.
- LHV: if a stop is off the LHV network you now still get a route, with a warning for each part outside the network that an exemption is needed there; Plan a trip shows those warnings too, and explains why there is no route when that happens.
- Every fuel station now shows which fuel cards it accepts (DKV, Shell, UTA), in Nearby fuel, the timeline and the fuel balloon, also in CarPlay. New map layers Shell fuel stations and UTA fuel stations, more than 4,400 extra fuel stations, and more garages and truck washes.
- In Plan a trip you can drag the stops again to change the order; the page no longer scrolls while you drag.
- In Plan a trip you can now also pick a saved address (Home, Work, Depot) or a favourite as start, stop or destination; with an empty search field they are at the top, and while typing matching favourites come first.
- The points of your trip are shown on the map as A, B, C: A is the start, then each stop in order and the last letter is the destination, also in Plan a trip and in CarPlay, with the same letters in the list.
- New map layers with garages and with truck and bus washes in Germany, Belgium, France, Spain, Denmark and Sweden; the DKV fuel station layer and the truck parkings now cover those countries too, and a charge point shows whether you can pay with the DKV card.
- In the timeline, service areas and rest areas on the motorway show how many truck spaces there are, when known.
- When driving without a route the screen now also stays on while you drive, and for 10 more minutes when you stop, for example at a traffic light or in a jam.
- Sweden: height, width, weight and axle load restrictions and roads closed to trucks now count in the route and are shown on the map.
- Mountain passes in France: during the winter closure the route goes around them, and with a trailer or semi-trailer also around passes closed to trailers; the explanation names the pass and the reason.
- Exceptional transport: the tunnels with permit conditions (including the Coen, Wijker, Westerschelde and Kil tunnels) are listed in the route overview with the condition and the numbers to call, and on the way a timely message tells you what to do.
- Low and zero-emission zones along your route are shown on the map, red if your vehicle may not enter, orange if it may for now and green if it may, and the route overview lists per zone whether the route passes through or goes around it.
- New version of the app at 07:52: iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.2 (69)
- If location on iPhone is not set to Always, the app explains why it is needed when you start navigation and lets you turn it on right away, or via Settings if iOS no longer asks.
- In Plan a trip you now pick the day with Today, Tomorrow or a calendar, and the time with one tap on the hour and the quarter instead of with arrows.
- Red light cameras are no longer shown as a traffic light icon on the map for now, in the app and in CarPlay; the warning ahead remains.
- On iPhone, navigation keeps running in the background, also when location access is set to While Using the App; the route no longer disappears when the app has been off screen for a while.
- No extra "Keep left" just before an exit when the large panel already shows the same lanes, and no road number of the road you are leaving under the lanes.
- The advice below the green panel no longer covers the distances in the timeline on the right.
Friday 30-10-2026
- In Plan a trip you can now also add stops: the planned route passes all stops in order, with the arrival time for each stop and the stops numbered on the map.
- If a new route after leaving the route has to be requested again because the server was briefly slow, the app now calculates from where you are at that moment, no longer from where you were a minute earlier.
- A road closed in both directions for roadworks is now also closed in both directions when the notice only covers a short stretch, such as the Walcherselaan in Marknesse: the route no longer takes it.
- While a route is being calculated, the Cancel button stays in view, also on Android phones with many calculation steps: the list of steps scrolls along.
- When driving without a route, the triangle (and any other position icon) now always stays in the right-hand lane, just like the route line during navigation. Before, it followed the GPS and could end up in the left lane or switch back and forth.
- When you cross a viaduct and your route later passes underneath it, navigation now stays on the viaduct and follows the ramp down, instead of jumping straight to the road below, as on the A7 near Abbekerk.
- CarPlay: when driving without a route, the arrow now stays in your lane between two GPS fixes and follows the bend of the road, just like during navigation. Before, it kept shooting straight off the road in bends.
- A route starts on the carriageway in your direction of travel, even if the GPS places you just beside the other carriageway: you are no longer sent back to the previous exit first, as on the A6 near Lemmer.
- A fixed route started from your own location no longer sends you back to its start at the distribution centre when recalculating before you have reached the route.
- New version of the app at 15:58: Android 1.0.2 (vc82)
- When you zoom in, the map now also shows the signs in view, not just along your route or on the road ahead. A sign that applies to your vehicle is red.
- Reporting or adding signs and restrictions now also works without an account. An added restriction appears on the map and in routes after VYS has reviewed it.
- Press and hold a sign or restriction on the map (including a road closed to trucks) to review it, or tap it and choose Review: correct, wrong or a different value, with a comment if you like. Add restriction shows the signs, now also has width, asks up to how many metres or tonnes, and also works while navigating.
- An old border post along the road no longer counts as 10 minutes of waiting. The route now takes the same road across the border in both directions, for example between Antwerp and Frankfurt via Heerlen and Aachen, and the arrival time is more accurate.
- Android: Menu > Navigation and zoom explains how to open map links in Truckroute, with a button to the Open by default setting of the maps app. Android has no default navigation app like the iPhone.
- A truck route stays on the larger through road if that is at most 5 percent (or 2 minutes) slower, instead of sending you through on small roads and through villages. For example near Nordhorn: around on the B403 instead of through Veldhausen.
- New version of the app at 14:38: iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.2 (68)
- A closed exit or slip road no longer closes the motorway next to it. The route towards Frankfurt now stays on the A3 at Bonn/Siegburg again, where only the exit to Bonn is closed, instead of a detour over smaller roads.
- At the Ridderkerk interchange on the A15 towards Gorinchem the app now advises the right lanes. Wherever the lane arrows do not tell where a lane goes later on, the app chooses the lanes that lead to your destination.
- Toll in France: the stretch from Paris (Saint-Arnoult) to Clermont-Ferrand is included again. In Spain, Italy and Portugal the toll is 0 euros if the route uses no toll road there, instead of not calculated.
- New version of the app at 14:15: Android 1.0.1 (vc81)
- While navigating the green route line itself turns orange or red where there is a traffic jam, on the phone and in CarPlay; before, the road next to the line was coloured.
- Place names are shown above the 3D buildings again on the colour and Normal maps, on the phone and in CarPlay; buildings and streets sometimes ran through them.
- Tap a sign or restriction on the map to report that it is wrong, with a comment if you like. Long-press the map to add a restriction: no entry, height, weight, axle load or a no-overtaking zone with its hectometre posts.
- Fixed route from your current location: if the store route lies in a zone with a weight limit (such as the 7.5 tonne zone in Amsterdam), you first drive to the fixed route before that zone and follow it into the zone, instead of looping through small streets to get in.
- A route stops before a weight limit at the destination, also when that limit is close to where you start; before, the route could then go through it.
- On a two-way road the route line is again always on the right-hand lane, also off the motorway; sometimes it was on the left-hand lane.
- After leaving the route the message Recalculating route appears straight away, the new route comes faster and its first instruction is spoken at once.
- If you leave the route and then pass under or over it, for example under a viaduct, you no longer get a new route twice: the crossing no longer counts as being back on the route.
- Exemption: at the top of the overview of a requested exemption there is a Route on the map button. It shows the whole permitted route on the map with a start and finish flag and only the structures on that route (with a button to hide them), without calculating the route.
- With LHV, abnormal load and ADR with route-bound goods you can hide the inside or outside the network sign at the bottom, in your vehicle settings. This also applies to CarPlay.
- On a long route the buttons respond right away again, including Stop: the app recalculated the route line on the road over the whole route every kilometre, which held up the screen for seconds.
- The fastest route is now chosen on the travel time you also see in the app, with the real speed limits and your speed limiter. A shorter route along a provincial road that is faster, such as from Hengelo to Zeewolde via the N302, is now chosen instead of a detour along the motorway.
- CarPlay: a route preview now has a Cancel button on the left. It removes the route and you are back to free driving right away, also after you stopped navigation. From the next version of the app.
- The route line no longer zigzags across the road where the lane markings are briefly missing, as on the A6 near Lelystad; it stays in its lane.
- A no-overtaking zone now ends at the first junction or exit after the sign; without a new sign after it, it ends, as on the N65 near Vught.
- Over 400 no-entry signs that belong to a driveway, car park or business site no longer close the street next to them; that saves needless detours and warnings.
- An incorrect address on the DC Zaandam site no longer appears in the search results.
- Travel time across a terminal or company site without a speed limit is now calculated at 50 km/h instead of walking pace. A trip to the Maasvlakte was nearly half an hour too long because of this; the remaining time on the way is now correct too. To still see the time on the site as delay, turn on Count terminal roads in the delay in Menu > Route.
- An LHV route to a terminal or company site no longer shows a delay for the last stretch across the site when there is no traffic jam there.
- Road works with a lower speed limit or a closed lane are now also shown when your route joins them halfway or leaves them halfway, or when the route is recalculated while you are already in them, as on the A6 near Lemmer.
- Spain: height, width and axle load restrictions and roads closed to trucks now count in the route and are shown on the map.
- New version of the app at 10:55: Android 1.0.1 (vc80)
- For an LHV, abnormal load and ADR with dangerous goods on designated routes, a small sign next to the signs at the bottom shows whether you are driving inside (green) or outside (red) your network, with and without a route; when more signs appear and there is no room, it makes way. In CarPlay from the next app version.
- Route management: you now place a remark on the map per route of a store, on the fixed route, the departure route or a temporary route. The driver only sees it on that route: as a balloon on the map and in the route text of the route overview.
- The Truck parkings and Closures map layers now update themselves while the app is open: free spaces every minute, closures every quarter of an hour. Before, they kept the state from when you first opened the layer.
- With abnormal loads the detour balloon now says "A20 closed to abnormal loads" when the road is closed only to abnormal loads, instead of "closed: roadworks".
- Fixed routes: route management can place remarks on the map. You see them in the route overview at their spot and in the summary, and when approaching, the remark is shown large instead of the green panel, with a spoken message. If there is a turn just before it, the turn comes first and the remark is shown below it.
- A restriction on a side road no longer closes the roundabout or main road it joins. Near Almkerk the route went through the village instead of simply along the N322; this happened at sixteen places.
- In Belgium the average speed checks of the federal police on the motorways are now included too, such as on the E17 from the border at Rekkem to Aalbeke.
- The hectometre sign in the green panel now looks like the real sign: black edge, white inner line, the road shield with Li or Re above and the kilometre in large figures below, in the same font as the rest of the panel. When the sign is shown, the line You are now on is no longer shown with it.
- Back now retraces your steps: from the favourites map to the favourites page and from there to the address bar where you started, instead of to Map layers or the menu.
- The app is now at the top of the homepage: the Truckroute app for iPhone and Apple CarPlay, with screens of the navigation, the timeline and CarPlay.
- The Settings page is now called Menu, also on the button on the start screen.
- In the menu, the page with past routes is now called Route history.
- At an intermediate stop the app now says you have arrived at your stop instead of at your destination, in the green block and in the spoken instruction.
- The timeline can now also show roadworks on your route, with the temporary speed limit and whether a lane is closed or narrowed. Can be switched on or off per type, in the app and in CarPlay.
- Fuel stations appear on the map as a blue balloon with a pump pointing exactly at the station, on the phone and in CarPlay: during a route those on the route within 10 km, without a route those within 2 km. Can be switched off in the settings. From the next version of the app.
- The timeline now shows the number of the road a speed camera or traffic light is actually on, such as the A13 near Delft instead of the A16 you were on earlier.
- When only an exit or entry ramp of the motorway is closed at night, such as on the A28 near Nunspeet, the route now stays on the motorway instead of sending you off as if the whole motorway were closed.
- A section speed check in Belgium now shows 90 instead of 80 for a truck on the motorway, in the message and in the speed display. The maximum speed in a section speed check now follows the speed for your vehicle on that road in every country.
- CarPlay: the settings have a slider for the text size of the green direction panel, from small through normal to large. From the next version of the app.
- No-trucks signs, height signs under 3.8 m and signs with a very low axle load no longer appear on through A and N roads, in all countries: such a sign belongs to the side street next to it and is now shown there, or has been removed if there is no side street. So there is no longer a 1.9 m or 1.5 t on the N210 at the Algera bridge.
- The faster route message now closes by itself after 20 seconds and no longer returns every few minutes. On a fixed route (AH, permit, tour) faster or other routes are no longer offered.
- A longer heavier vehicle (LZV) is no longer sent off the motorway at an exit only to rejoin the same motorway straight away via the on-ramp, as happened at Wezep on the A28.
- CarPlay: the exit number in the green panel now appears in the exit symbol, as with the lanes, instead of in a white box. From the next version of the app.
- Truck parkings shown on the map, such as the truck parking in Tongeren, now also appear in the timeline when they are along your route and on the Truck parkings map layer, in all countries and with the number of spaces when known.
- An address abroad is now also found when the place is a district or has a typo, such as Nettetal-Kaldenkirchen or Botttrop: the app then searches by the postcode or the first part of the place name.
- A route that passes close to the destination and then still turns around now only ends at the destination itself, not on the first pass.
- Switching from north up back to heading up while navigating now turns the map straight to your heading instead of first to the north.
Thursday 29-10-2026
- New version of the app at 18:20: Android 1.0.1 (vc79), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.1 (67)
- Fixed routes: the DC in Hoorn is now simply called DC Hoorn in the list.
- The route no longer sends you through the reversible tube of the Coentunnel, which may be closed, but always through the regular tubes.
- In the green block the distance is always on one line, also next to the kilometre marker.
- The signs at the bottom are in one line; an additional panel such as 06:00-19:00 hangs below its sign instead of pushing it up.
- Fixed routes: the search field opens with a number pad (with a button for letters to search by address) and typing a store number responds immediately again, even with the full list of over 1500 stores. Under All DCs the stores are now in store number order (1, 7, 8, 10, ...) with the DC below; pick a DC to see only that DC's stores.
- Sand tracks and unpaved paths through woods and fields no longer appear as asphalt roads with markings on the map, as next to the Baan in Dussen.
- The triangle position icon now points straight along the road on a tilted map in every driving direction; driving diagonally (for example north-east) it pointed up to 20 degrees off the road (from the next version of the app).
- When you drive without a route with CarPlay, the phone simply shows the map instead of the text screen. While navigating the phone stays in text mode.
- The timeline now only shows fuel stations, rest areas and truck parkings that are really on the motorway or main road. Fuel stations in town next to the motorway, for which you have to leave the motorway, are no longer included.
- On an iPad in landscape the app now uses the landscape layout, with the map on the right and navigation on the left, and the map no longer looks all the way to the horizon. This stops the app from closing on an iPad shortly after a new route. On an installed version from the next update.
- CarPlay: the arrow now lines up with the road while navigating, and with north up it points in your direction of travel instead of always north.
- The triangle on the map now also lines up with the road while navigating, including when you are standing still in a traffic jam and when changing lanes. On an installed version from the next version of the app.
- In the CarPlay timeline the text on a sign, such as a height of 4.8m, now always fits inside the sign (from the next version of the app).
- Truckroute is now in the share menu: share a location, address or map link from WhatsApp, Maps or another map app to Truckroute and you get the route overview straight away. On Android also under Open with for map links. From the next version of the app.
- In CarPlay the turn arrow in the green panel is white again during the day instead of black, and the triangle position icon points in your direction of travel in the overview (from the next version of the app).
- If you stop at a traffic light after creeping forward slowly, the map now stops too and no longer keeps moving slowly.
- At exit 29 Spier (A28) the route now simply sends you left from the N855 onto the slip road to the A28 towards Hoogeveen, instead of more than 10 km out of the way via the A28 north and turning back at Beilervaart. From late this evening.
- The toll for the Blankenburg tunnel (A24) is now included in the charges of a route: 9.49 euros per trip for a truck or bus over 3,500 kg, 1.57 euros for a lighter vehicle.
- For truck parks where we know live how many spaces are free, you now see it on the way: in the timeline, in the route overview, as a label on the map as you approach, and in Map layers with a tap for the details (from the next version of the app; in CarPlay from the next version).
- In Belgium, Luxembourg and Spain the road numbers now appear as real road number signs in the green panel and in the timeline, as in the Netherlands, Germany and France; on Belgian motorways the E number stays (from the next version of the app).
- In Belgium signs now only apply to the direction they face, and a weight limit sign with a supplementary plate for a car park no longer closes the through road. From Diepenbeek the route now simply stays on the N76.
- When two routes are equally fast, the route planner picks the shorter one: Diepenbeek to Herzogenrath sometimes went 25 km out of the way via the E40 instead of the N76 and the A76.
- You can now speak an address: tap the microphone next to the search field (or next to the field for an extra stop) and say the address. What you say appears straight away in the search field. From the next version of the app.
- New on the map layers page: Along the route. Choose up to 3 layers, such as truck parks, structures or DKV fuel stations, and see everything from them within 2 km of your route on the map in the route overview and while navigating, also in CarPlay.
- The routes button while navigating now really finds other roads: it also looks for routes that avoid part of your current route, and shows how many minutes faster or slower they are. If there is no other road at all, you briefly see that.
- Timeline: when there are many signs at the bottom, the timeline starts above those signs and becomes a little shorter, so the signs never cover the timeline items again.
- New version of the app at 13:25: Android 1.0.1 (vc78), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.1 (66)
- More than 60 signs from traffic decisions added to route planning, including no-overtaking zones on the N62 in the Sluiskil tunnel, the N99, N377 and N371, weight limits at thirteen bridges in Twente and a lower clearance under the N252 near Hoek.
- A truck or coach takes the wider road when the driving time is almost the same: no longer a narrow polder lane or a residential courtyard when a wider road next to it is hardly longer, also close to the destination.
- The 3D model position icon stays visible when you zoom far out, on the phone and in CarPlay (from the next version of the app).
- On the favourites page, tap a favourite to navigate there straight away. In the search field you find a favourite by its name, now also when you make a typo (from the next version of the app).
- When you stand still, the speed in CarPlay and on the phone shows 0 km/h, no longer the last speed while slowing down (from the next version of the app).
- Android: without a route the position icon and the map now glide smoothly along the road, just like while navigating, instead of jumping at every GPS fix (from the next version of the app).
- The triangle position icon now looks three-dimensional: a light and a dark half and a soft shadow underneath, on the phone and in CarPlay.
- In France the lorry route now also takes clearance heights, widths, axle loads and roads closed to lorries into account.
- On the grey map the roads now also have full asphalt with edge lines and readable street names, as on the colour map; before there was sometimes only asphalt at junctions (from the next version of the app).
- If you take the first exit right at a roundabout, the green block (also in CarPlay) now shows right instead of straight on, even when the road first continues straight for a moment (from the next version of the app).
- A route with dangerous goods (ADR) on the A15 past Hardinxveld-Giessendam now stays on the A15. The route used to send you back to the A27 and kept recalculating, because a road crossing over the motorway was mistaken for the built-up area.
- In Belgium the route planner now knows almost 500 average speed checks and over 1,400 speed cameras, in Flanders, Brussels and Wallonia, also on regional and local roads; before there were only a few.
- New in the settings under Navigation and zoom: Destination address at the bottom. While navigating, a fourth line in the bottom bar then shows the address of your destination, with its own text size. It is off by default and applies to the app, not to CarPlay.
- The balloon explaining why the route skips a road now also appears on the map after accepting a faster route or choosing another route (from the next version of the app).
- The average speed check on the A7 from Purmerend towards Hoorn is now announced as well; that direction was missing, only the direction towards Purmerend was included.
- The hectometre sign in the green block now shows the road number shield at the top next to Li or Re, as on the real sign; the You are now on line is then hidden (from the next version of the app).
- The balloon at a detour now states the exact limit, for example Too low: 3.99 m at a railway bridge, instead of rounded to 4 m (from the next version of the app).
- A route to a destination behind prohibition signs (for example with dangerous goods into a built-up area) is calculated much faster: a trip from Kampen to Dordrecht went from over a minute to about 20 seconds.
- More no-overtaking zones for trucks along the route, such as on the A28 near Hoogeveen, Pesse and Beilen and on the A2, A15, A50, A59, A67 and A73, with the end sign in the right place.
- Advice such as Keep left is shown below the green block only from 10 km before the split, no longer tens of kilometres in advance (from the next version of the app).
- If calculating a long route takes a long time (for example with dangerous goods to a destination in a built-up area), a new attempt within five minutes gets the route straight away.
- While navigating, the app loads the map along your route 50 km ahead, in the background after you have started. If the internet drops out for a moment, for example just across the border, the map simply keeps going (from the next version of the app).
- Where there is a traffic jam on your route, that part of the route line turns orange, or red for a heavy jam, now also while navigating and in CarPlay (from the next version of the app).
- Coach: with a new setting, when you leave the route you choose between going back to the main route (automatically after 20 seconds) and another route over smaller roads, where the length and weight of the coach allow it; both routes are calculated in advance (from the next version of the app).
- On the A81 near Böblingen towards Singen, the route no longer sends you on a detour: the roadworks at the Hulb interchange keep one lane and the hard shoulder open there.
- CarPlay now shows your position straight away when you connect or start a route while standing still, instead of staying on the overview; zooming and the follow button then work on your position as usual.
- In the route overview the route line turns orange or red where there is delay, with a balloon showing the length and the extra minutes at each delay.
- At an exit with two exit lanes that split afterwards, the lane guidance shows the correct exit lane right away, also in the spoken instruction (for example from the A2 to the A15 towards Rotterdam).
- At the Drechttunnel on the A16 the route for lorries uses the right-hand tube in both directions; the left-hand tube is closed to lorries.
- The timeline in the app and in CarPlay now also shows the traffic jams on your route within 50 km, with the road number next to it; tap the icon for the length and the delay. Can be switched on or off per type in the settings (from the next version of the app).
- Searching the settings now also finds synonyms and other word forms, such as sound or volume for the voice, night mode for the theme, radar or speed camera for speed cameras and boat for ferries.
- Vehicle on the map is now under Navigation and zoom in the settings, instead of on a page of its own.
- All CarPlay settings are now together on the CarPlay page in the settings, with the timeline below them.
- Between the lines on this page you can now see when a new version of the app came out, so you can tell which changes are in which version.
- The latest version of the app, for Android and for iPhone and CarPlay, is now shown at the top of this page.
- You can now report a speed camera straight from the map: press and hold the spot, choose Report speed camera and the type. A mobile camera stays for 4 hours.
- At the top of the favourites page in the settings is All favourites on the map: you see all your favourites on one map, and tap a star to navigate there.
- While navigating you can scroll the row of map buttons on the right up and down, so that on a smaller screen you can also reach the bottom buttons.
- When the route changes to another road number at a fork, such as from the A8 to the A10 at Coenplein, that fork is shown with the new road number in the large green box and in CarPlay, not only as Keep left below it.
- The green route line stays within the markings of your lane in bends and on roads where the map draws the road slightly differently, always on the right half of a two-way road.
- On a wide Android car screen, the travel time at the bottom is back at the normal text size, also when it is on one line.
- Your position triangle points straight along the road again when driving without a route, even when your phone is unsteady in finding your lane (from the next version of the app).
- New in the settings: the CarPlay page, with Timeline in CarPlay. While navigating you then see the next 150 km on the right in CarPlay, with your speed and the speed limit small at the top; the other signs and the compass are then hidden. In CarPlay too, you choose what the timeline shows (from the next version of the app).
- The large green direction panel is always at the top. Hints such as Keep left and Keep right are shown below it, even when they are closer.
- New version of the app at 00:25: Android 1.0.1 (vc77), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.1 (65)
- After calculating a route the map goes straight to the overview, without first zooming in on your own position.
- Near Hooipolder the route uses the new A59 connecting ramps, without the detour of more than 10 km.
- On the Ceintuurbaan in Harderwijk near the N302, the route no longer sends you back to the A28 when heading east, but simply continues.
- The Roggebotstraat in Purmerend is now a one-way street in the route, south-east only, as the signs show.
- Search results show the street and house number after the company name when there is room, also in CarPlay.
Wednesday 28-10-2026
- New map layer DKV fuel stations: all stations that accept the DKV card, from the list of DKV, with motorway stations shown larger. Tap a station for details and to navigate there. Nearby fuel stations show DKV as well.
- On the motorway, the route line stays in the right-hand through lane and no longer runs over the exit or entry lane, which made it look as if the route left at the exit and came back on at the slip road.
- New in the settings: Route timeline. With Hide map buttons on, you see the next 150 km on the right, with the first motorway rest area, fuel stations within 50 km and speed cameras, average speed checks, no-overtaking zones, prohibition signs and weight limits within 10 km. Each item shows the distance and the road number; tap the icon for the name, the address and when you will get there. The nearest is at the bottom, and you choose what it shows (from the next version of the app).
- A route to Paris on the A2 (via Valenciennes) includes the French toll again; it was missing, so the toll was incomplete.
- While navigating, the app only searches for other routes by itself when Take traffic jams into account is off, and then every 7 minutes. When it is on, the app suggests a faster route based on current traffic, as before.
- Recalculating a route no longer picks a motorway exit one time and skips it the next: a prohibition sign on a side street no longer closes a motorway exit, as near Bunnik.
- Searching for a company abroad also works with the town added, such as Demarne Rungis, even when you are in the Netherlands.
- CarPlay: during a route, the arrows move the map in the right direction and by the same distance again, including the right arrow (from the next version of the app).
- You now set the theme of the app and of the map separately: the map same as the app, automatic, always dark or always light, also in CarPlay.
- Map layers: at the top there is again a page with all layers together on one map, where you can turn on up to three layers at once.
- New version of the app at 20:56: Android 1.0.1 (vc76), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.1 (64)
- On the way, the grey, driven part of the route line ends exactly at your vehicle again and no longer runs ahead of it (from the next version of the app).
- Type a hectometre post in the address field, for example a2 104,5 or A28 82,3 li: the post appears at the top per carriageway (Re and Li) and you can navigate there straight away.
- On the map layers, the Navigate here button for favourites and weighbridges is readable again and the text in the favourites panel is larger; Close and Import when importing favourites are readable again too.
- Home, Work and Depot are always shown on the map, each with its own icon (house, briefcase and warehouse), also with aerial photo, in CarPlay and on the overview map of Map layers.
- A planned closure only counts when you arrive after it starts: no more detour around a road or tunnel that only closes later.
- If a closed road lies far beyond the turn, the map and CarPlay also show a short balloon just after the junction with the reason, how far ahead and when it is closed; the sign at the closed spot itself stays.
- New version of the app at 19:10: Android 1.0.1 (vc75), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.1 (62)
- The map layers stay open when you open them from the settings, also when the app has just started or is busy; your navigation on the main map simply continues.
- The Street View overview on the iPhone (press and hold on the map) stays open again instead of closing straight away.
- Only the favourites with a star appear at the top of the search box (up to five, chosen on the favourites page); find the others by typing their name, and the word Favourites opens the favourites page.
- On the way, your vehicle on the map always keeps moving along the route at the speed of that moment, even when GPS drops out for a moment; the map then corrects smoothly. Only when more than 50 m off the route and standing still or slower than 20 km/h is the vehicle shown beside the route. In the app and in CarPlay (on Android and in CarPlay from the next version of the app).
- If you enter a different weight for a trip, that weight now also shows in the steps while calculating the route and with a restriction on the route.
- When your route is being recalculated and it takes a moment, you see a spinner with "Recalculating route...", also in CarPlay. On Android, recalculating no longer gets stuck on a poor connection (from the next version of the app).
- The road you are driving on now shows only once in CarPlay, also when driving freely on a motorway.
- On the way, a balloon on the map above an upcoming traffic jam shows its length and delay, in the app and in CarPlay. Once you are in it you see what is left; after the jam it disappears.
- When choosing a route, the arrival time on each card matches the travel time above it again: traffic jams now also count in the arrival time.
- Import favourites from a file, for example the data export of another navigation system or a GPX, KML or CSV file: you choose per place whether to keep it (from the next version of the app).
- New version of the app at 17:44: Android 1.0.1 (vc74), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.1 (61)
- The delay from traffic jams now counts all jams up to your destination, not only those in the first hour.
- The buttons on the start screen (vehicle, Settings, Plan a trip and Permit) have a calmer, more professional look with an icon.
- CarPlay: the button below the minus brings the map back to the normal view, including the zoom, also when standing still and during a route after zooming; the route overview only appears in the normal follow view, and CarPlay starts at the normal zoom every time.
- Route overview: Traffic on this route at the top, with the traffic jams and the delay, the roadworks and the works vehicles on the route.
- The phone voice pronounces road numbers smoothly (A1 as one word) and no longer names the E number when there is already an A or N number.
- Map layers: all layers below each other in a list, and every layer on its own page with a map, explanation and the buttons of that layer.
- A road section closed to trucks that has no sign of its own no longer continues on the other side of a main road.
- On the last part of a trip, "1 min delay" no longer appears when there is no traffic.
- Reporting speed cameras: you choose fixed camera, red light camera, average speed check or mobile camera; a mobile camera expires 4 hours after the report.
- You enter the one-off weight with the number keypad.
- Voice: choose the VYS voice or the phone voice (female or male); on Android via Bluetooth, Bluetooth calling or always the phone speaker, on iPhone the phone speaker also with Bluetooth.
- Map theme Normal light in new colours, with green meadows and fields (also on the Colour map) and 3D buildings in the colour of the map.
- Hectometre posts: the sign with L or R at the bottom right of the green block, and navigating to a hectometre post from its page in Map layers.
- Setting Follow lane: off keeps the route line and your vehicle on the right lane; on a two-lane road the route line is always right of the centre line.
- Compass, zoom and position: tapping the compass turns the map at once, your zoom on the way is kept and the triangle is an option as position icon.
- Pop-ups scroll again and stay above the keyboard.
- If the destination is on private grounds, the route ends at the nearest entrance, with a message.
- A sign or closure on a side street no longer closes the through road next to it, also when the side street has the same name.
- Fewer unnecessary instructions: no separate fork just before the next turn and no keep left at an exit you drive past.
- With an exemption one tap on Start navigation is enough.
- Matrix signs: above a road with a peak-hour or plus lane there is again one sign per lane, also in CarPlay.
- Settings: a search field at the top that also finds with typos, and the app version at the bottom.
- The bottom bar goes from small to very large with a slider, and the green direction block can be set in width and height.
- A Keep left or Keep right further than 2 km away is a short line without lanes; with the setting Directions from 5 km you see no blocks or advice further away, also in CarPlay.
- New version of the app at 12:31: Android 1.0.1 (vc72), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.1 (59)
- Map layers: weighbridges and your favourites on the map, with Navigate here.
- The map moves smoothly between slow GPS readings, stands still when you stop and the vehicle no longer jumps with a new route.
- New vehicle: van up to 7 tonnes with trailer.
- Lanes: Keep left also off the motorway, and the cross of a closed peak-hour lane is on the right lane.
- ADR: tunnels go by tunnel code, so load E may use the Kennedy tunnel and other category B, C or D tunnels again; now also with the tunnels of Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark and Sweden.
- New version of the app at 10:39: Android 1.0.1 (vc71), iPhone and CarPlay 1.0.1 (58)
- If you start inside a weight limit or zone, such as in the centre of Amsterdam, you get a route out instead of no route.
- Aerial photo: outside the Netherlands the normal map instead of white.
- Abnormal loads only use the main carriageway, not reversible lanes or the reversible tube of the Coen tunnel.
- Hide map buttons: the buttons on the right of the map only appear when you touch the map and disappear again after 8 seconds.
- You can hide the map buttons on the right; they come back when you touch the map.
- A faster or other route on the way is always calculated from your driving direction, also in traffic, and only appears when it saves at least 5 minutes.
- A one-off different weight for a trip, next to the weight in your profile.
- Charging points show the type and the remarks of drivers, in Nearby and on the trip map.
- Sound off stops the voice at once, and a new instruction no longer cuts off the current sentence.
- Speed cameras are shown as an icon on the map, also during navigation and in CarPlay.
- The remaining travel time comes from the driving time of the steps still ahead, no longer in proportion to the distance.
